The rolling hills
The landscape features rolling hills.
Fold over, each other
The hills fold over each other, creating a picturesque scene.
Golden fields
Golden fields of corn and barley are present.
Of corn and, barley
The speaker describes the rain causing tears, suggesting a strong emotional connection to the surroundings.
The rain pricks my eyes with tears
Joyful puddles rolling down the speaker's cheeks express happiness.
Joyful puddles roll down my cheeks
The unfolding of the scene is compared to a paper chain, highlighting the beauty of the moment.
It all unfolds like a paper chain
Realization sets in that the speaker is back home.
As I realise I'm home again

It's as rugged as you can get

The sweet summer breath

Ripening your smile for the day ahead
A shift in perspective: the speaker didn't understand recluse living before.
The only place that I need is my, home,home again
