Dont Fence me in....

Don't Fence me in
Photo by me
Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
Don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in.
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze,
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees,
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in.

Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies.
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise.
Photo found via We Heart it

Photo by Paper.Lillies
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in.
just wandering
Photo of me, taken by a friend

The words are from Cole Porter's song 'Don't Fence Me In'.

The holidays are almost, almost here...and all I long to do is 'Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses'

Lady-Bird Kisses,
Erinna.

    Marvelous photos! So dreamy.

    And I just love that song! I sing it all the time. Have you heard Harry Connick, jr's version? It's my absolute favorite.

    I thought I took the top photograph...I'm sure I remember making you run up and down that hill! And who is that clearly fantastic person in the top photograph? Oh wait, it's me!

    Beautiful pictures! They make me want to go outside. It's really chilly out right now but perhaps if I bundled up I could enjoy a nice jauntier through the park :)
