Picture in my mind
Hills and mountains reach up, as they stretch to touch the sky
The clouds like vintage sailboats, So Graciously, sail on by
The greenery below reflects, the shadow of the sun
Earth in all its glory, from the time that life begun
A dirt road to our future, or a pathway from our past
The backdrop of our childhood, which we knew could never last
A fence post forms a boundary, to keep us in or keep us out?
The weather is our custodian, To winter floods or summer drought
And as the dusk is falling, A cool wind blows through the trees
Then the majesty of the landscape, sends me praying to my knees
Regardless where life takes me, no matter what I'll find
I have my place of comfort, And this picture in my mind
