Just A Country Girl

Just A Country Girl
More Ramblings of My Mind

Most of my friends see me as who I am
Just a simple country girl
With a heart of gold
To share with all her friends

So they snagged me with a name
One that wills you to live, a life of fame
Close friends and family call me Angel
A name that stands out fighting any shame

So, I polish that halo surrounding my life
I look towards the light everyday in my plight
So I can always share with others
A piece of spirit to brighten their life

Just as they have touched mine
With friendship and love that fills my heart
With kind loving words right from the start

So can I beat my own drum in this..just this once?
A simple little piece of country girl
Shared with friends each and every one

Well I guess so, just this one time, I’ll let it show
For you can’t go around singing your own praises
Unless you want others to think of you as jaded…lol

Anyway, just a simple country girl
From the mountains of Tennessee

Is all I am, can’t you see

With my Native American spirit
I give love and thanks as the Sun rises each day
For the gifts from Mother Earth
For all Her creatures on this land
She shares each day with Her loving Hand

With a love for putting pen in hand
Making pretty words to share with friends
An eye to the camera exposes
My true love on this land

I make friends easily where ever I go
Cause my heart is so big
That it always shows
A love and kindness where ever I go

Just a simple ‘Loves ya bunches’
Shows a heart from the mountains
Giving love to all I call dear friends

Tread lightly on this precious gift of mine
At times it comes back filled with sour brine
The hurt of a gift of love freely given in one’s life
Can be a hurt that lasts for all times

Okay so do I beat my chest now?……lol
I’ve sung my praises now my face does show
Rosey cheeks of red, so I think its time to go..

Loves ya all bunches
Asha

and here you are again dear friend the first one to comment on another one of my poems, sometimes that just confuses me how they are overlooked, I guess to most they are just not good enough, so I thank you my friend for taking the time to read and comment on my work, It does make so much difference when others respond to your writes for it inspires you to keep writing more. but ya know, even when they don't I still keep writing them, less my heart fill up and over flow with too many emotions for it to hold. thanks dear loves ya bunches asha

I can see where you get your beauty and inpiration from, I have been to the tennessee mountains, they are breath taking to say the least, it is like another world. I remember one day driving through the smokey mountains, I was crossing the new foundland gap and i came to a revene. I saw something i will never forget, I parked my car and walked out on this long bridge on the side of the mountain, at the end I saw the most beaitul sight I had ever seen. I over looked the mountains thousands of feet up, properly so high I could see into North carolina. There was this blue haze that crossed the sky, it was so sureal it is hard to explain to those who have not seen it, I remember thinking this was the closest sight to heaven's door I had ever seen, it was breathtaking!!! I took pictures which did it no justice, I just stood there for what seemed like hours, I felt I was at the very ends of the world, it was truely inspiring! So I know what you mean about the beauty of nature and some of the sights you have seen, I culd only imagine seeing such sights everyday, that would be pure heaven. Beautiful poem my friend but you still can't have my name, lol. Purity of the soul, journey well!!! Angel aka The poem buster

Yes dear friend I know exactly what you mean, for I grew up near and within the cherokee national forest. its beauty is truly breathtaking especially when you travel to the top of the mountain and hike down the trails that will lead you to more than on wooden dock you might say hanging over the edge of the mountain and you can see for miles. the view is undescribable at times. I was born in LA but grew up and lived in TN from the age of nine, until just this past year I came to Florida to stay with one of my husbands and my best friends a few months after his tragic death in a motorcycle accident. and as you may have noticed a lot of my writings are about him, for he inspired me to write again after a had quite some years before we met. We loved a lifetimes worth in the year we were married. I had dated him for a couple years then married him, he was my soulmate in this lifetime of mine, but he passed just short of our first anniversary. He was a true country boy from the hills of TN. and a fine man to have for a husband, plus he never let it bother him that I was almost twelve years older than he was. That to me was true love. Yes friend I am just a country angel from the hills of Tn...lol thanks for all your kind words love asha aka Angel oh and have I mentioned to you about my photography website, please stop by and visit through nature with some of my photos, the ones titled from clinch mountain Tn are some that my hubby took up at the top of the mountain overlook, playing with the camera and came up with some freaky light show photos. I wrote a poem about those called 'pieces of you' have a read and enjoy. http://angelsphotos.co.cc more often my words are spoken more loudly through the lens of my camera. blessings dear, love and light asha

As all of your poetry is this is none different, truely beautiful and an inner reflection of your heart, mind, and soul. I have only one problem, you can't have my name, lol. All though it sounds like we have it for the same reason... jaded you are not, more the reflection of purity. part 2

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
