The Watermelon Mountains
Written by Joyce Greene
4/27/08
Pink tinted mountains
Peek in my bedroom window
And watch me crying
I long for pine covered hills
And the deep snowfalls of home.

A lovely picture Joyce, good work!
Dave
thanks, dave
the mountains were beautiful, always changing color, but the location was not! Definitely too far from home and too different!

Ah the South West...
You longed for deep snowfalls? lol. Somehow I find that hard to believe. But it's a very well constructed and evocative piece. Love it!
everybody needs a good laugh...
yes, humor is good medicine - a very famous Reader's Digest quote, if I'm not mistaken!
thanks for you comment!
