Southern Grace

Title: Southern Grace In the land where magnolias bloom, Beneath the southern sun's warm embrace, There lies a region filled with tales, A tapestry woven with Southern grace. Amidst the fields of cotton white, Whispers of history, rich and deep, A symphony of voices, day and night, Their stories, secrets they forever keep. From the Mississippi's mighty flow, To the bayous of Louisiana's sway, The South unfolds its vibrant show, A place where time dances, come what may. Sweet tea and pecan pies delight, Soulful melodies in the humid air, Gentle drawls and "y'all" unite, A sense of kinship, ever there. Majestic oaks with branches wide, Provide shade from the scorching heat, A refuge for dreams to safely reside, Beneath the canopy, life's rhythm beats. Oh, Southern belle, so fiercely strong, With grace that knows no bounds, You've endured, and you belong, In this cherished corner of hallowed grounds. So, let us raise a glass up high, To the American South, a cherished place, Where history, culture, and love's reply, Reside in hearts with Southern grace.

I am a Texas boy myself. I've always enjoyed my friendships with the Southern Belles.
