Exmoor.

The mist hangs low across the moors

A gentle breeze to kiss the tors.

Ancient boulders lost in sleep

Guard lost secrets they will keep.

Up above the buzzards fly

Soaring, soft, dissect the sky.

Below swift rodents deftly dance

And measure future with their chance.

Ponies drop their heads to chew

Leaving thought, to me, and you.

Yellow gorse bursts on the scene

While Adders seek the sun, unseen.

The beauty that is held herein

Surpasses wrath and mortal sin.

This is God's own chosen land

It's not for us to understand.
