Outdoor Life

Within four canvas walls;

Even though the grass is lumpy

There is no greater joy.

The sense of adventure is high

Especially when trying to cook,

Bangers and bacon and beans

Taste so much better in the open air.

For getting close to nature

There is no better way,

Spiders and beetles come inside

And welcome you to their world.

But although I love my freedom

I also like home comforts,

So a calor gas stove I use

And a camp bed keeps me cosy.

 Some might say I'm cheating

But to me it makes good sense,

Why rough it when there is no need

I'd sooner have a home from home!
