Homeland

Rolling hills of rock and heather
Narrow roads and cold crisp weather

Sunrays through a rain cloud sky
Rivers roll where eagles fly

Sweet smells waft in open places
Natures gifts the good lord graces

Snowtop mountains, seas of green 
I close my eyes, these things I’ve seen

So far from me this place can seem
But always with me when I dream
