Kentucky

Just to let you know

a little about where I live

It's horses and hills a rolling

and Bluegrass in the fields.



We are known for fast horses

beautiful women and cornbread.

Corn licker to wet your whistle

and Bluegrass music to sooth your head.



Good neighbors that will help you out,

wash your car or mow your lawn.

Or come and pick you up

when your drinking has gone too far.



Kentucky is what I'm talking about

just in case you did'nt know.

Thats the reason we all sing

My Ol Kentucky Home.......

Having married a Kentucky girl (well, almost; she was born in Ohio of parents from Kentucky), I can relate deeply to this poem. Lady Certainly, as I call her in my poems, is my Muse---and part of her charm, as Muse, is her Kentucky heritage.
