Warding Off The Chill
Buckland, Massachusetts Down in the valley
is a quiet place,
Where life moves
at a slower pace,
Letting the rats
win the race.

Fabulous post dear Sunny, thanks a lot for this sweet energy and so beautiful poem.

What a great spot those lucky folks have.
It looks very tranquil.
Nothing mousy about this post, Sunny. Solid little poem, cozy, valley image.
Would not mind having a place like that. Nice & quiet. Living out where no one bothers yha. I have always thought about that. No rat race there!

Thats where I want to be, in the valley - away from the rat-race.
Love the photo and words.
Beautiful serene photo and words to live by Sunny!
I much prefer the valleys that are far, far away from the rat race. great shot and poem. I am enjoying my retirment because I am no longer out there with the rats.
I wish I lived there! This is such a good picture of this little valley. I LOVE the poem!
What an ideal location to live. It looks quiet and I would enjoy the privacy. It would be nice to wake up to that scenery each day.
What a wonderful definition of country living this post is!
Mmmmmmmm...I can smell the woodsy smokey air just looking at it!
Thanks so much Sunny!!
Al you need is just one beautiful picture of nature and simple words. That is what life is all about. Thanks for visiting.
Wonder if they ever get snowed in?
It's such a snug little house... nothing is quite as cozy as smoke rising from a chimney. I love your poem!
Beautiful Sunny... I love seeing little farm houses like that in the valley--with smoke coming from the chimney... Looks so wintery!!!!!
Hugs,

I love this photo Sunny and I would love to be inside that house right next to its fire after a long walk in those beautiful surroundings.
That looks cozy! I love your poem; yes, let the rats win the race. :)
Such a quaint little scene!
Doesn't this just epitomize real rural bliss !
Such a delightful picture, and lucky homeowners...
Thanks for sharing it with us Sunny ;)
When I looked at this post I thought the photo was great. Then I read your poem and thought is was even better. That's a great philosophy!
The whole scene is very cozy. Great photograph.
Looks like a nice little community down in the valley.
