A Southern Memory

A Southern Memory

dusty, winding road
cotton crops glowing bright white
Mississippi mud

Thank you my friend. A view on the place that my youth spent many a hard day working the farm. I swore to never live on a farm when I got to be an adult- a vow that I've kept now for 47 years and counting.

Thank you my friend. I am very pleased you could see the imagery and the truth in a young life lived on a Southern farm near the mighty Mississippi river and the Delta area.

Thank you my friend. Especially so for the added fav.. As this one came directly from a memory of my life when in my teens on that Southern farm, where I worked so very, very hard.
