Oklahoma

Dusty old dirt roads
Under the blue open sky;
Pastures and prairies.

Wonderful view! I'm originally from Texas, but I passed through Oklahoma on bus a few times. It reminds me of the rolling lands of Indiana a bit but not so cold. Peace.

I've never been to Oklahoma but this doesn't sound much different than North Dakota where I was raised. It brings up memories. Thanks for your comment on my poem. Love, Joyce
