OH MOUNTAIN LAUREL !
Oh montain laurel
how I miss the
morning dew
lying on your
rambling beds.
The soft greenery
tender leaves
your lush blossoms
keeps callng me
Oh mountain laurel
your sweet scent
fresh lasting aroma
never escapes me
Images of your
beauty fascinate
your colors are
brilliant
The mountains sing
of your presence
How I long to return
listen to you humming
evening song
Oh mountain laurel,
there is no other like
you.
