Georgia On My Mind

Georgia, Georgia The whole day through (the whole day through) Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind (Georgia on my mind) Georgia on My Mind sung by Ray Charles Songwriters: Hoagy Carmichael / Stuart Gorell GEORGIA ON MY MIND Peachy blue skies, perpetually deep Idyllic sunrays resonant with power Summer is waning; the sun never sleeps Pecan pie in the sky - stickiness of flowers Georgia on my mind. No where else to go Names and cells, neighbors don’t exchange The pace is apropos, pandemic is slow Delta is variant, chameleon of strange 9/10/2021

Enjoyed your tribute to Georgia, Kim. A lovely place to be especially when there is nowhere else to go. Been to Atlanta a few times--enjoyed its multi culture vibes.

I regret I've never been to USA, let alone Georgia. Must be a beautiful place. Hugs.

The USA is beautiful. I’ve never been to Malta but we are going to Israel unless the pandemic determines otherwise. Thank you, dear friend.
