The Southern Yankee

Feelings from my heart with thoughts
of yester year.


Poem Artwork




While living in the south,
I yearn for the mountains
and valleys of the north,
the smell of the evergreens,
the maples and birches.

All are silently enclosed
within the heart of the
Southern Yankee ,, forever.

Dass me, a Southern Yankee. I miss my Ohio roots, too..............especially during tornado season, where they had BASEMENTS up North!! But I don't miss the cold so much anymore........BRR, my blood's thinned out since moving to Texas 24 years ago. :) A beautiful, poignant write, well done!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Being a northern Yankee my entire life, I don't know if I could ever leave the evergreens, the maples, or the birches behind. But these winters are quite trying - and more so as I age!
