Maine...."the way life should be"

In Maine the air is so tasteful,
smelling like a freshly cooked apple pie.

In Maine every morning is a new day,
waiting to be discovered.

In Maine the blue waters flow,
into the beautiful turquoise lakes.

In Maine the birds all fly free
and the animals roam wherever they please.

In Maine you taste the luscious blue-berries,
newly grown, freshly picked, soft in your throat.

In Maine rainbows shine,
with beautiful colors and shooting stars that
are fast and gold in the warm summer night.

In Maine the lady slippers and lupine sing out,
with bees in their harmonic orchestra.

In Maine the birds' songs are bold and clear,
and you hum with them as you make your
way on a glorious adventure.

In Maine you catch a glimpse of the sunset,
and you cherish the memory of Maine for the
rest of your life.

In Maine...."It's the way life should be."
