From Desert Sands To Canada

  From Desert Sands To Canada
Picture Credits:

In California, south of here,
There lived a little girl,
Her hair was blonde as golden grain,
And it was full of curls.

She lived a life of poverty,
Upon the desert sands,
The Mojave was her place of birth,
That's where her life began.

Born inside a small white house,
That's all they could afford,
Her parents struggled to get by,
But love for her outpoured.

At nine years old she lost her Mom,
Now she was all alone,
So she was sent to Oregon State,
To find a brand new home.

When she was grown she headed north,
To Canada she came,
And ever since I met this girl,
I've never been the same.

A different land and way of life,
From poverty and strife,
I asked that girl to marry me,
And she became my wife.

We'll never be as rich as kings,
But we are still in love,
From desert sands to Canada,
My angel from above.

How long after you were married did she finally get those glasses? LOL I tell my wife all the time that we married for better or worse, I got the better and she got the worst!
I can see,you are as lucky as me!
With Dovie you can fly high!
Like a bird up in the sky!

This is very nicely done. I like the humbleness of this piece and how you pay tribute to your wife. I rather be happily penniless, than be rich and in misery. God has rewarded you for being righteous.
