A Poets Place Poem by Ronald Strickland

With its majestic mountains and valleys,
fields, rivers, and streams,
Tennessee is a poet's place to be.

The foliage of the trees
and the fields of wildflowers of Spring.
In the poet's mind,
the Fall colors and nature takes control,
and the poet's pencil begins to scroll.

A poet can translate Tennessee
as you can see all the beauty that awaits you
in a poet's place to be,
that lets you see all the magic that one may find
that is filled with dreams in a poet's home in Tennessee.
Tennessee is a poet's place to be.
