I'll Sing King Sooper's Theme Song Afresh

Hopefully if you're unfamiliar with that song google will comply and locate it for you.
(sonnet #MMMMMMMDCCCXXXVI)
Blue skies out West look deeper in a sense
Than Illinois e'er knows, clouds in betrayl
'Non floating laz'ly in such vast seas they'll
Assure ye rare pools know, til I from thence
Half ache to be in those dear prairies hence
As childhood fondly knew, swept to avail
Clean of these houses clustered sans aught bail,
And where the Thunderbirds roar through fr'intents.
I said I'd join the Air Force, but Dad fer
All that said: No. And that is better too.
Yet oh! the Rocky Mountains! O those pure,
Unfathomed bluest skies! What is't that'd woo
Me from their depths? I feel it 'non bestir
My soul, just watching from afar. And you?
