Our Countryside

This our countryside we must revere.

What would we do if it was not here?

It should all be loved and all be preserved,

To show to everyone it is deserved.

 

There is no more lovely pleasant scene

Than hills and vales - all covered green.

View the flowers and trees - don't take for granted

All of the things that have been planted.

 

And if there's something that should be rife,

It is for us to strive to save our wildlife.

And if there's a place we should not hide,

It is in our great and wondrous countryside.
