A Tribute to the Western Skies

 


A sneak peek of what's to come in my book of poems & short stories



Bear Tooth in the Sky

 

I love this land,

This Montana.

Wide, open spaces and skies.

What a moment this is.

 

The wind in my hair,

The freedom I feel,

The love from so many

Is infectious.

 

The welcome of sunshine,

Embraces my soul

And I move so effortlessly.

Freeing the bonds of constriction,

 

I’m me.

 

All life should be this easy,

It should be this glorious too.

I should always feel this happy,

In chasing away the blues.

 

But sadly, I must depart.

With memories in my heart,

I will always ache for the music

In the song, Montana sings.
