Made my way
just north of Santa fe
to enchanted circle
today

A magnificent trip
wind ripped
through my hair
two wheeled thunder
and cool mountain air

First stop
at veterens memorial
read the names of those brave men
and the battles they helped to win

Black gorge
time helped to forge
stood there
looking at the river below
and
gazed at the mountains
capped with snow

Back on my iron horse
enchanted circle
and
 a steady coarse

Red river
Taos too
Angel Fire
and skies of blue

Eagle nest
cold mountain lake
and
the best of
Enchanted circle
for
my souls sake

Saw
Ponderosa
and
pinon pine
that give us nuts
in the autumn time

Enchanted circle
where
one is always
sure to find
a friend
Enchated circle
I would ride again and again

Made camp
under some aspen trees
Enchanted circle
where my soul is free

What a rush
what a thrill
on an iron horse
my spirit
it does fill

Wild flowers galore
mountain streams
that inspire dreams
ski resorts
and
so much more

No time for
a siesta
because
around the next bend
lies Questa
and
my old friend

Will stay there a night
or
maybe two
Enchanted circle
is where
I am taking you
 
Someday
maybe you will take that ride
on
Enchanted Circle
where
souls glide
