America, Dreams That Sing
America, Dreams That Sing
Like a voice from the wilderness, a name
a song ringing shore to shore.
America, cast your lines to gather searching fish,
souls that venture forth to quench heavy thirst!
As beautiful and faithful as an old friendship,
a place to let spirit rejoice and laughter ring.
Walking into sunsets laced with freedom's gold
waking to morns fiery born and heavenly laced!
Where jewels of laughter ring out in silver drums,
brightness shines and shines upon wishes granted.
Sun filled hours bake dreams to glowing perfection
ovens spew out magical pies that sing melodies!
America, birth the hearts of glory forever and a day!
Yield not to complacency nor defeated hopes cast asunder!

A three day break and this came to me on the five hour
drive back home .
