Georgia Poem

By John I Nash

Georgia

O! Come to Georgia my home, with mountains lush green and streams so clean.

Turquoise blue oceans, white sand beaches, Island paradises, beckon me.

Dark waters of the Okeefenokee wetland give pause to ones hurried life and make it right, as mysterious animals find their place and beautiful birds take flight, in this natural cathedral of life.

Come to Georgia where the sky is so big and blue it reaches down and kisses you.

Come to Atlanta with tall buildings of steel and glass that reflect the vitality of their inhabitance.

O! Come to Georgia and meet the greatest people of all, proud of their heritage and southern culture, self-reliant, strong and free from Governor Deal right down to me.

O! Georgia don’t ever let me leave.
