The Land of Extremes
May 31, 2023
That’s where we are in Central Montana
When you move to this land and have your dreams
Jim Beam is a good idea it seems
We have summers that are hot and dry
We have long, cold winters that will make you cry
Drought years when irrigation water is short
Sometimes you and your neighbor end up in court
The land of extremes is where we live
Sometimes it seems like we just give and give
But there are good times, too
Although, at times, one thinks it’s something new
Mosquitoes and gumbo are mentioned a lot
The hot days in August will make you wonder why you signed on the dot
The Big Sky is what we’re all about
You can see for miles and miles without a doubt
It’s where neighbors know you and help you out
They’ll be there when you’re having a bout with the gout
Now we are having a flood in the land that we love
Do we need to send out a dove?
Now, one extreme that we can hopefully control is buffalo
From the Missouri to the Canadian corder
Those people should be set in mortar
The land of your dreams
North Central Montana is the land of EXTREMES
Did you ever ponder that somewhere there’s a better place?
It’s won’t be here on earth you’ll have to face
Actually, you can have paradise here in Central Montana
With the Salvation Story and the Holy Ghost
Then, when your time runs out, you’ll end up with eternal life, at the most
Now, this is not a dream
Worldly people may say why be so extreme?
Why be foolish with a dream like that?
You say life eternal is in my format.
And that’s that!
