Within a Valley Dream
Within A Valley Dream
In Spring, far below snowy mountain peak
sun shines bright gifting more abundant life
As massive forest green begins to speak
soon forgotten, is bleak-cold winter strife
Fertile valley blossoms as a Spring child
clear streams flowing filled with colorful fish
Glorious days, tramping into this wild
living within a dream's paradise wish
New crops emerge from blessed valley soil
Nature's castle covers this special place
Reaping reward from new life and hard toil
smiles beaming forth from every happy face
Find such and let your high spirit there fly
Brief is that hour, long is the by and by
