Two-story stacked stone house
on a five-acre tract of land
a gazebo made for writing in a journal
in your own hand.
Brook in the front
the Little River in the back
sittin' on the screened-in porch
with Sweet Tea and a snack.
Listenin' to kids' laughter
ringin' through the air
in a tree across the river sits
a solitary bear.
Family reunited for a hot, summer week
Kids are fishin', swimmin', and laughin'
in the shallow creek.
Hikes through the Smoky Mountains
burgers on the grill
a thousand splendid sunsets
an oasis from the world.
Sunday mornin' service
in the great outdoors
singin' old hymns written
to worship our Savior
and our Lord.
Rushing Waters surround the house
where once we gathered all around
A lifetime of family memories made
upon that special, well loved ground.
