Where open skies stretch far as the eye can see
and wildflowers bloom, uninhibited and free
Where the earth is covered in lush hues of green
and the air in my lungs is fresh and clean
Where nature fills my senses and desire roams free
that is where I long to be
My heart yearns for the wild things

Almost, really? Wow, that is saying something! 😉
Thanks Joey!
If it makes any difference, it wasn’t too hot out the day I snapped this photo, and as you can see there were plenty of clouds to keep from baking under the sun. It was actually almost perfect for a summer day. 🙂
