From high above the valley I sit taking in the beauty
That only the Rockies in spring time can give
soft a breeze is blowing , the sent of pines in the air
a magpie an blue jay fighting over a twig each thinking they
need it for their nest
a cow Elk standing in a thicket waiting patiently for the newborn calf
to learn to use it's wobbling legs
there's Beaver frantically working on their damn trying to hold back
the run off water
the snow pack recedes up the mountain a little every day
this is gods country, The Indian he understood
As I walk back to my old truck I stop for another moment an ponder
What it must of been like to be the first white man to see this land
long before the trail that became highway 40
There's Nothing Like the Spring time Rockies
Yea This is Gods Land !
