    It's nice when the feeling and emotion are invoked, effortlessly. You don't even have to close your eyes, you're just there.

    If this poem is so 'good' how come no one comments on it? All the hits have been over a short time period. Hmmmm.

    I think you've captured the ''American Dream''...land of milk and honey...does this world still exist in the 'ol US of A? Nice feelings...for a minute, I really believed I was there. Good Poem.
