Wales To Me Is

Wales to me is people who smile and hug
Demonstrating clear uninhibited affection
Feelings dancing from their eye souls.

Wales to me is verdant meadows of produce
Cows with giant forgiving amber eyes
Nurturers who uplift each other as well as their offspring

Wales to me is homegrown and personal.
Lacy church weddings, grooms with pink cheeks.
Approval of tradition, appreciation of familial ways.

Wales to me is exotic adventure.
Wales to me is travel, and photographic opportunity.
Wales to me is fanciful and fantastically freeing

You did a splendid job with this one, Caren. HAve you ever been there? I am almost half Welsh! I think my mom's both parents were from there! It would be so neat to go visit that place.
