The Country Music Hall of Fame

A country music fan is not
A title I would claim
And yet today I visited
Its well-known Hall of Fame.

For here I am in Nashville,
In the south and far from home,
But I believe in following
That adage, "When in Rome..."

Surprisingly, I much enjoyed
The various displays.
The folks that made it happen sure
Deserve a lot of praise.

Though lots of boots, guitars and hats
Belonged to I don't know,
Still, I loved this fine museum
And think everyone should go!

I love this one ilene, how I would love to visit the country Hall of Fame as I just love country and western music, but I am afraid it is out of the question as I am not in the USA and getting a bit too old to travel that far these days, instead I will read all about it in your delightful little poem, thank you and take care........Vera

It's great to step out of your usual comfort zone and see new sites and experience different things it sure can be surprising when you discover something you really like but hadn't taken much notice of previously:-) Have a wonderful holiday:-) hugs jan xx
