R-LEE’S SAGA love the land as those who came before you loved
R-lee loved the land as a youth. He was surrounded by animals and a dog named-peaches.
maybe someday he would echo the words of the English poet.

| |
| HAPPY the man whose wish and care |
|
| A few paternal acres bound, |
|
| Content to breathe his native air |
|
| In his own ground. |
|
| |
| Whose herds with milk, whose fields with bread, |
5 |
| Whose flocks supply him with attire; |
|
| Whose trees in summer yield him shade, |
|
| In winter fire. |
|
| |
| Blest who can unconcern’dly find |
|
| Hours, days, and years slide soft away |
10 |
| In health of body, peace of mind, |
|
| Quiet by day, |
|
| |
| Sound sleep by night; study and ease |
|
| Together mixt, sweet recreation, |
|
| And innocence, which most does please |
15 |
| With meditation. |
|
| |
| Thus let me live, unseen, unknown; |
|
| Thus unlamented let me die; |
|
| Steal from the world, and not a stone |
|
| Tell where I lie. |

R-lee a boy of dreams and high aspiations.
