Peace; for a moment!

I saw the flowers, the wonderous fields
I saw the rabbits enjoying their meals
there sat an owl in a high up branch 
so serene while I ate my lunch

Twas’ ten minutes of an unexpected day 
peace and quiet in a the countryside way
I lay on the grass, no reason or rhyme why
a touch of amazement as I followed the sky

I hadn’t  known peace like that ten minutes before
listening to twittering of the sparrows guffaw 
a warm sun shone, down on my soul
I wished the ground would open and swallow me whole

To be eternal in this scene of tranquillity 
somehow advanced myself in one’s ability
walk away now, then all has gone
yet, the memory of that moment lingers on.
