    Just A Country Girl

    Just A Country Girl
    More Ramblings of My Mind

    Most of my friends see me as who I am
    Just a simple country girl
    With a heart of gold
    To share with all her friends

    So they snagged me with a name
    One that wills you to live, a life of fame
    Close friends and family call me Angel
    A name that stands out fighting any shame

    So, I polish that halo surrounding my life
    I look towards the light everyday in my plight
    So I can always share with others
    A piece of spirit to brighten their life

    Just as they have touched mine
    With friendship and love that fills my heart
    With kind loving words right from the start

    So can I beat my own drum in this..just this once?
    A simple little piece of country girl
    Shared with friends each and every one

    Well I guess so, just this one time, I’ll let it show
    For you can’t go around singing your own praises
    Unless you want others to think of you as jaded…lol

    Anyway, just a simple country girl
    From the mountains of Tennessee
    Is all I am, can’t you see

    With my Native American spirit
    I give love and thanks as the Sun rises each day
    For the gifts from Mother Earth
    For all Her creatures on this land
    She shares each day with Her loving Hand

    With a love for putting pen in hand
    Making pretty words to share with friends
    An eye to the camera exposes
    My true love on this land

    I make friends easily where ever I go
    Cause my heart is so big
    That it always shows
    A love and kindness where ever I go

    Just a simple ‘Loves ya bunches’
    Shows a heart from the mountains
    Giving love to all I call dear friends

    Tread lightly on this precious gift of mine
    At times it comes back filled with sour brine
    The hurt of a gift of love freely given in one’s life
    Can be a hurt that lasts for all times

    Okay so do I beat my chest now?……lol
    I’ve sung my praises now my face does show
    Rosey cheeks of red, so I think its time to go..

    Loves ya all bunches
    Asha

    and here you are again dear friend the first one to comment on another one of my poems, sometimes that just confuses me how they are overlooked, I guess to most they are just not good enough, so I thank you my friend for taking the time to read and comment on my work, It does make so much difference when others respond to your writes for it inspires you to keep writing more. but ya know, even when they don't I still keep writing them, less my heart fill up and over flow with too many emotions for it to hold. thanks dear loves ya bunches asha

    I can see where you get your beauty and inpiration from, I have been to the tennessee mountains, they are breath taking to say the least, it is like another world. I remember one day driving through the smokey mountains, I was crossing the new foundland gap and i came to a revene. I saw something i will never forget, I parked my car and walked out on this long bridge on the side of the mountain, at the end I saw the most beaitul sight I had ever seen. I over looked the mountains thousands of feet up, properly so high I could see into North carolina. There was this blue haze that crossed the sky, it was so sureal it is hard to explain to those who have not seen it, I remember thinking this was the closest sight to heaven's door I had ever seen, it was breathtaking!!! I took pictures which did it no justice, I just stood there for what seemed like hours, I felt I was at the very ends of the world, it was truely inspiring! So I know what you mean about the beauty of nature and some of the sights you have seen, I culd only imagine seeing such sights everyday, that would be pure heaven. Beautiful poem my friend but you still can't have my name, lol. Purity of the soul, journey well!!! Angel aka The poem buster

    Yes dear friend I know exactly what you mean, for I grew up near and within the cherokee national forest. its beauty is truly breathtaking especially when you travel to the top of the mountain and hike down the trails that will lead you to more than on wooden dock you might say hanging over the edge of the mountain and you can see for miles. the view is undescribable at times. I was born in LA but grew up and lived in TN from the age of nine, until just this past year I came to Florida to stay with one of my husbands and my best friends a few months after his tragic death in a motorcycle accident. and as you may have noticed a lot of my writings are about him, for he inspired me to write again after a had quite some years before we met. We loved a lifetimes worth in the year we were married. I had dated him for a couple years then married him, he was my soulmate in this lifetime of mine, but he passed just short of our first anniversary. He was a true country boy from the hills of TN. and a fine man to have for a husband, plus he never let it bother him that I was almost twelve years older than he was. That to me was true love. Yes friend I am just a country angel from the hills of Tn...lol thanks for all your kind words love asha aka Angel oh and have I mentioned to you about my photography website, please stop by and visit through nature with some of my photos, the ones titled from clinch mountain Tn are some that my hubby took up at the top of the mountain overlook, playing with the camera and came up with some freaky light show photos. I wrote a poem about those called 'pieces of you' have a read and enjoy. http://angelsphotos.co.cc more often my words are spoken more loudly through the lens of my camera. blessings dear, love and light asha

    As all of your poetry is this is none different, truely beautiful and an inner reflection of your heart, mind, and soul. I have only one problem, you can't have my name, lol. All though it sounds like we have it for the same reason... jaded you are not, more the reflection of purity. part 2
