poem 35

"Texas, Home"

Texas means
Big cities and massive fields.
Texas means
Airplanes every half hour and so many stars.
Texas means
Hot, hot beaches and cold, snowy hills.
Texas means
All day driving and reaching either Florida or El Paso.
Texas means
Southern hospitality and delicious TexMex food.
Texas means
Sometimes there are cowboys at church.
Texas means
Cattle pastures, hay fields, and high speed Internet.
Texas means
Going off to school, but never really leaving Home.
