I have a dream …

Here is another inspirational poem written by Tracey Curtis …

I HAVE A DREAM …

It’s always been a dream of mine
As I love the open space
To move myself to Texas
And buy a little place

Something with a barn or two
Nothing big or grand
With hand-made wooden fences
And cattle on the land

With lots of fields to graze in
Mountain views, what a scene
A rocking chair upon the porch
Located near a stream

Inside the house is basic
With one rug across the floor
With shutters on the windows
And a latch fixed on the door

With beams upon the ceiling
A open fire to burn the logs
A kettle with a whistle
And a spit to roast the hogs

With flowers by the front door
Out the back red apple trees
The smell of blossom as it falls
Floating in the breeze

Wild deer in the distance
In peace and harmony
With chickens eating corn
And horses roaming free

Candy colored clouds above
I know it sounds extreme
But this is where I’d like to be
It’s a shame its just a dream
