My Home poem


Four years ago I decided to write a poem about the beautiful state I live in!! The poem doesn't give the credit it should to the beauty, but I hope that it helps you to see it somewhat!

My Home
Rugged hills and rolling countryside,
Blue-green grass and tall, strong trees,
Hollows clothed in blankets of flowers and tangles of blackberries,
Rivers, creeks, and streams flowing fast and strong,
Steep rock out croppings and dark, dense woods,
Rabbit burrows, mole labyrinths, and deer paths,
Wild turkeys and bright bluebirds,
The howl of the coyote and the gentle hum of the katydid,
Fireflies on warm summer nights,
Sweet juicy raspberries and sun-ripened tomatoes,
Shaded country lanes and red-orange sunsets,
My picturesque Kentucky home.
