America
The milky skies and the rolling waves of green,How I’m caught helplessly in the midst of this dream
Cool air swirls through our hair, not a worry insight
And not a moment of despair- I haven’t felt this anywhere;
Ahh! the American countryside,
What Earthly structures,
And what long hilly drives
What jagged mountains,
And what a thrill it is to be alive
Sunny skies and the escape from life’s lies
The soft lolling of the emerald seas,
Wild wavy plains- And far off city lights;
What wonder, and what fright
Being here now, not yesterday,
Nor tomorrow-
Not a single regret, not a speck of sorrow
The narrow dusky roads
And pearly stars glistening in the night-
The mysterious shimmering moon,
And the poetic visions of the unknown;
Nature’s beauty dancing in divine fashion,
And the satisfaction of my mind expansion
The lonely inner state roads and rumbling highways
Lonely green forests
And the shadows flickering through the branches,
A vast array of different species-
And their endeavors both day and night;
Spooky dimly lit neon signs,
And the beckoning lonely vacancies-
Misty rains, and the holy snow;
Sandy beaches, and barren deserts,
The red, brown, and yellow leaves of the dying year
Crystal caves and white water canyons
Great lakes and fierce storms-
Reckless tornadoes and the howl of turbulent hurricanes,
Grass lands and great red woods,
The blue wondrous sky, and the puffy white clouds;
The spirit of the land saturates our souls
And our minds are naturally freed,
What a lovely land it is I’ve see,
What a lovely land for you and me.
