Pomp and Consequence
Having fun poetically reflecting on what could happen when city folk return to nature

Marriage vows
Said in a pasture among cows
Surrounded by plows and bales of hay

The sun burned bright; we waited years just for this day
Sun’s rays reflected lit the field afire, some say

Both our hearts and the farm's field ablaze
Pomp and Consequence phase
Hippy craze
