[hometext] => A city girl with the hankering for a simple country life
[bodytext] => Born and raised in a town nick-named 'no mean city' Once familiar, now a stranger, violence second nature Swapped those mean streets for an out in the sticks address Designer name threads switched for a pretty cotton dress Grey skies for the scorching flame reds of a Southern sunrise No more fad diets its all fried chicken now and sweet potato pies Ditched the fancy cocktails for pitchers of cold sweet tea Lifeless bouquets for wild flowers scent wafting on summer breeze No missing the soul destroying daily grind for a slower pace of life Sitting on the front porch, radio playing 'Country Boy Can Survive' Green tomatoes, watermelon, home grown corn, down on the farm Feeling rejuvenated seduced by this land's sweet Southern charm Tailgates, BBQs, picnic parties, crawfish fishing, dipping toes in the creek A friendly neighbour's call of 'hey y'all' , the children playing hide go seek The catchy toe-tapping boot scootin' beat of a hoedown country band It forever holds a special place in my heart my adopted homeland.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
