Out among the big things - The mountains and the plains - An hour ain't important, Nor are the hour's gains; The feller in the city Is hurried night and day, But out among the big things He learns the calmer way. (Arthur Chapman (poet))

Out among the big things - The mountains and the plains - An hour ain't important, Nor are the hour's gains; The feller in the city Is hurried night and day, But out among the big things He learns the calmer way.
