Mountain Laurel

Lake Tahoe,
cold nights
and during the days the
wind blows
both ways

the crystal clear water
from
the lake,
surrounded by melting snow on the
top of the mountains

the mansions, with the
perfect
view of the dancing trees
and the
sleeping lake

The wind blows both ways...

the sun is out,
but the cold wind
blows

the town,full of wooden houses,
with chimneys,
for when it snows..
and the wooden balcony
for when the sun, is out and the wind
blows

the old fashion restaurant, in
the dead corner
of the street humdrum in the
outside,
tumultuous in the inside

the wind blows both ways

everybody, smiling
jumping, laughing
its the 4th...
he 4th of July!
the stars shine and the stripes
dance

all of this in the land of the free,
and the home of the
brave
