Eureka

They call it the Eureka Ditch

And when I walk it, I'm enriched

With a time to think, a time to pray

A time to relax and get away.

I prefer the ditch in its natural array.

But gunnite's way better than piping, I'll say.






There is an old lady who lives down the path

Her 4 dogs bark and she yells her wrath.

It does ruin the peace but I guess that's life.

This earth is filled with noise and strife.

But I just walk on and enjoy the next part

And make sure that peace and joy rule my heart.








If I walk just past where my ditch ends

And this great waterfall descends

I can see our town past the trees below

And the canyon there where the river flows.

Just beyond that is where my son lives

And my daughter's home is just over the ridge.




If you look real hard, you'll see my bro

Driving slam bang for the casino.

And further on up the road is a school

Where my hubby and I both learned the rules;

As well as our kids and grandkids now.









Yep ~ I love where I live With beauty all 'round.

I say 'Eureka' for what I have found.
