New Hampshire's motto,
Live Free Or Die.
A 4-season state,
with the Shoals of Isle.
Spring is beautiful
You can still go skiing.
Fall, the foliage,
For that leaf peeking.
Summer to the beach,
Wonderful seafood.
Winter is the best,
When skiing is REALLY good!

Michigan is the best place to be
The beaches are grand, freshwater lakes, you see
there's so many things to do
outside in all the 4 seasons if you
choose to play in the snow
or the beaches and sun I know
You'll love our great peninsula
(At least one of them!)

This Poem is written as an Acrostic ~ OK ~ BRIAN

soft amethyst of columbine blossoming
amongst the evergreens
in jagged emerald forests
laced with tender chartreus leaves
meld into copper indian colored summers
against the bloodshot auburn sky
as cardinal hues give way to winter
utah ~ the true essence of a rocky mountain high

Adobe Houses all in a row
When the ALIENS wanted to land
They chose ROSWELL ~ New Mexico
LAND OF ENCHANTMENT ~ like one big BISTRO
Magnificent Mountains ~ Sangre de Christo
Visit Santa Fe ~ the Capital ~ its never gray !
The CARLSBAD CAVERNS are a magic underground
And in Georgia O'Keefes Paintings (see above)
All the beauty of New Mexico can be found !
Compared with the East Coast States it may be crude
But New Mexicans are gracious never rude
And here you get the very best TEX ~ NEW ~ MEXAN FOOD
But get there quick ~ so run and drive and Jump
It's getting all walled in by DONALD TRUMP !
