Notes About The Poem

Dreaming

Dreaming

Mohair goats to make yarn. 
40 acres and a barn. 
Trees, grass and flowers, 
there is… nearly heaven here. 

It is a place, we dream about. 
I want to take you there. 
We can ranch, and farm, 
and there will be no alarm. 
Just… peace and serenity. 

Drive out all that is bad, 
take in all that is good. 
Give back all that we…
can spare!

The eagle’s nest, yet better still. 
A place where only He…
has His WILL…!

God’s country, it is for me. 
God’s country, it is for thee. 
Come with me Cowboy, 
under the star, 
let’s begin a new life, 
away…and a far…




Eagles Nest is a reference to a giant lot of ten acres on top of a mountain. 
That is where the giant birds fly out from, each morning.

This dream may not be difficult to achieve...The problem is whether you can stand the loneliness...

As always you are so kind. Thank you. I pray you have the nicest day, full of sun or the kind of storm clouds that make you go, "cool".... Ann

It is a dream...that I am working toward. We all need dreams desperately. Have the very best of days. Ann
