Forever In Your Heart

Yes, I am of,
the southern flavor,
sweet and nice,
sugar and spice,

Sweet and spicy,
loving and fiesty,
bubbly and lively,

I drink my tea,
southern style,
For you, my friend,
I'd walk a country mile,

I like my men,
romantic, but strong,
One who holds me close,
while singing our song,

I wear my Daisy Duke shorts,
while washing my car,
I like to lay on a blanket,
outside at night,
makeing wishes upon a favorite star,

What you see,
is what you get,
For I don't pretend,
to be something,
I am not,

An All-American girl next door,
I do my best,
try anything, I put my mind to,
I give it my best shot,

Yes, I have a slow,
southern accent,
and I am honest,
I wouldn't lie,

For I love God and Jesus,
cross my heart,
and hope to die,

Now would you, like a slice?
of the sweetest apple pie
your little heart has ever tasted?

I promise, you will lick your lips dry...Not one crumb wasted!

Whoa...let me catch my breath. Being a southern gentleman I know all about the charm and grace of southern women. Y'all are the best, by far. Southern women have an air about them that can make the strongest man melt into a puddle or make the weakest man feel ten feet tall.

Fry up some chicken, pour the sweet tea, wear the "Daisy Dukes" and you'll have the men lined up for a mile.

raised in the south GA .. I know the southern charm of women....you described them to a "T" here....nice!

In your light I learn how to love
In your beauty how to make poems
You dance inside my chest where
no one sees you and that sight becomes this art

(smiles) Yay, and I do love apple pie very much, as I grew up in the South a lot too when I was little, yay! (angel friendship hugs) I used to have a splash of Southern accent myself, and after speech training (I had bad diction when I was little, LOL!) it kind of disappeared but I still say y'all instead of you all, I love roly-polys and crawdads, and when I get really excited that accent comes creeping out, you just can't escape your roots, LOL! (giggles) God Bless You, sweet friend, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
