Home To Campbellsville

It’s just a tiny village, a wide place in the road The pace where life is steady and it’s slow You find your comfort zone, no matter what the load Campbellsville is the place I know Brighter lights can call me, and travel makes me smile And city life can seem like such a thrill But nothing feels so easy, just like a country mile As coming to my home in Campbellsville When you find you’ve lost your way, and don’t know what to do When everything is headed straight downhill Think about the place you love, where everything was true And come on home again - to Campbellsville A little town in Tennessee, with history through the years The Campbell home, the Springs, and the hills The high school that so many loved, the victories of the Bears I’m going home again to Campbellsville

A tribute to one's home in a poem touches some very basic emotions for me. Yours is an excellent paean to your home town. I'm over on the other side of the state in Jefferson County. Nicely done.

Thank you Douglas, I truly appreciate your input. I get to Knoxville occasionally. Hope all is well in East Tennessee.
