We Grew Up Wild

"Legend says it's still all wild frontier, but that isn't quite so. Behind society's trends? Yes. But that's the best part. It's a place where there are still open plains. Cattle and horses wander almost like they're free. A place where neighbors still get together And kids are raised with discipline and love. Family events include all your second and third cousins. When someone needs a hand it's offered without expecting anything in return. And when there is a sporting event or musical performance, the whole town shows up to support. This is a collection of poems that will resonate with anyone who's from this piece of Heaven on earth: the Midwest."
