A Kansas Haiku
It goes forever
Never ending land, oh my
Someone just shoot me
>:)
TC and MM really did not like out first (or subsequent) drives through Kansas. Miles of NOTH. ING. OH! The complaints! We met family up that way to drop them off for a visit. On the way home to Texas I got this gem in a text from my resident poet, TC, with this gem! I think he was ready to be OUT of the car!
Why is this in "intriguing reads"? Because YHWH made each of us different and thus our brains work differently. I find the exploration of how my children's brains work to be extremely intriguing. ;-)
Update 12.2.2015
All of us have grown to like Kansas. It is quite pretty once you get off of the toll way. The small towns have beautiful old craftsman homes, tornado damaged areas are readily seen in some areas, old southern churches abound, when you're not on the interstate, there ARE trees on the Kansas prairie, and the people are (usually) very friendly.
That is another thing that we all find intriguing: there are really two Kansases.... one you barely get to know from the tollway (and truth be told, you're ever grateful because it is bleak, barren and going by at light-speed) .... and one you can dive into along the side highways and country roads, full of beauty and grace and charm you can't find on the interstate ribbon going 85 mph.
