Country Roads

i walked down them country roads so many times                                                               
i wish i were there to walk down them country roads again                                                   
i miss looking at the mountains,the beautiful flowers,and trees                                              
while i walk down them country roads                                                                                 
my mom and dad would sometimes walk down them country roads with me                          
i wish it could that way again but,                                                                                       
they are both gone to a greater land                                                                                  
one day i hope to see them again                                                                                       
my brothers and sister would sometimes walk down them country roads with me                   
i wish it could be that way again but,                                                                                  
my brothers and sister has gone to a land of love                                                                
i wish we all could walk together on them country roads.

Melancholy and yet peaceful. You have to believe that they are waiting on the other shore to again walk with you on the country roads. Nicely done.

Marie, this is sad but yet beautiful at the same time. It is going to be a glorious day when we meet our love ones at heaven's gate. Welcome to poetrySoup. Love, Carol
