Texas, The Land I Love Poem by Jana Koehn

Wide open spaces,
And friendly faces,
This is the land I love.

Birds in the trees,
Wildflowers and bees,
This is the land I love.

The beautiful skies,
And the coyote's cries,
This is the land I love.

Horses and cattle,
The rattlesnake's rattle,
This is the land I love.

The cotton and corn,
And calves being born,
This is the land I love.

Glass land for miles,
And the cowboy's smiles,
This is the land I love.

The home of me,
And my fam-i-ly,
This is the land I love.
