In The Garden – Shelburne Farms

Come sit with me awhile
And listen to the birds.
Come sit with me awhile
No need for any words.

The scent of flowers linger
In cool morning air.
Views of the Adirondacks
For you and I to share.

Brick and mortar witness
To history of these grounds.
Visitors soothed by the peace
Of country sights and sounds.

The inn stands as a sentry
For the sunsets in the west.
The weary traveler’s gift
Is solitude and rest.

Summer showers in the east
Leave rainbows arched overhead.
Come sit with me awhile
Watch the setting sun turn red.
