Today has been fantastic, I was visiting my home, Met my son who's doing well, (The best friend I've ever known) I drove up thru the mountains, Dogwoods all in bloom, Redbud trees and animals, From hibernation tombs. I love my Alabama, Like Lynard Skynard said: "The skies are blue and morals high, And religion isn't dead. They pray in school and rules are strict, A man still tips his hat, Ladies are treated with respect, "Can you imagine that?" Yes, today has been quite special, Not much these days I love, But I loved my day today dear Lord, Just a thanks to Thee above. |

And Toe, you need to put a "shiver down your spine" alert on this poem. I can feel how special your land, your son, your home is to you. |

Toe, I understand this perfectly. There's no place like home. I like this side of you, too. Of course, you're poetry is a joy to read in any style. Sadie |
