No Trade Wanted

Leave the city for your country?
Well, I don't see why I should-
Trade my hot and teeming pavements
For the coolness of your wood,
Barter your hills and meadows
For my temples made of stone,
Pass the clamor of my markets
For your chance to think alone
In the wind-swept fields you treasure
There to find work and rest,
Leave the peace your river lends
For my factory interests,
Change your starry moonlit nights
For my garish neon signs,
Give your wild birds sweetest chords
For technologies harsh racket-
No, just keep your country,
I am well content with these.
