Green leaves and yellow blossoms Paint the hillside home of my youth. For years now I have searched these hills For a kernel of life's truth. I see the light of living Flicker and flash in this natural garden -- The compassion, and the beauty of them Make my heart unharden. And after travel far and wide In further quest for absolution, I've learned that I wish to live upon These hills 'till life's conclusion. |

You have painted the hillsides of your home quite nicely I enjoyed! ~Krista "Poetry and Hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get you. |

There can never truly be anyplace like "home"... I can completely relate to the sentiments here. -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |

I like your rhyming Mish, it doesn't sound forced, which is good. I think.. I think this poem almost sounds cute though. Was it meant to be cute? It's nice Mish, real nice.“One word can be magical. Imagine then, the effect of several words, together..” |

Ron~ You're not wrong ![]() Betty~ It's great, yes. I've moved around a bit, and haven't seen anyplace to rival it yet. Krista~ Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed. Mark~ There's noplace like home *clicks his heels together* Titia~ Thank you for the compliment! I love the dandilions too. ![]() VAS~ You're welcome, mon ami! Lynne~ Thanks. I have a hard time with rhyming well in a non-childish way. So yeah, I expected it to sound a bit cute. But I'm working toward a less cute style. LOL You should read some of my older rhymes. They're so cute you'd probably vomit. Walt~ Thanks! Saunni~ Thank you very much. ![]() |

Heh, ah, I dunno about vomitting, Mish.. I like your poetry, and there ain't nothing wrong with cute sometimes. ^_^ Oh, and you should see MY rhyme, I haven't done a successful one yet.. i wrote things like cat mat hat bat when I was 5, but that's the closest I've ever got. ^_^Love -Lynne “One word can be magical.
