This part of our country is simply gorgeous to me----I will carry the sights and sounds and glory and pride in our nation in my heart for a long time with this vacation.......I have about 6 more entries to go and I'll be done with the 2010 Fall New England trip....but I'm feeling compelled to write....it's the English teacher in me coming out.... Back East by the Real Girl The trees called me back They lured me to their home But I found more than I expected Wherever I did roam I saw the leaves of vivid hues I heard many new birds' calls I tasted foods from long ago felt the spray from waterfalls I rode a train, in fact, rode two I watched the darkened skies turn blue Maple syrup dark upon my toast Rich delicious Yankee pot roast The inns were warm; the beds so cozy The brisk Fall air; my cheeks so rosy Antiques to see and touch and long for Flags so proud- to sing our Country's song more Covered bridges... hay bales round Apple orchards...darker ground Farm stands beckoned ...delicious fruit A peck of Cortlands...my new loot The barns and fences...how do I measure? these rich sweet moments with the man I treasure The birches white...the grass so green go East? go West? I'm in between Pumpkins on the porches piled in darling designs or scattered wild I breathe it in...I love them all This glorious time I've had this Fall!  |
