Land of Oz

Linda Callaghan

Land of Oz

Shall I follow the Yellow brick road
to the mystical land where treasures unfold.
Where the birds soar high
in the bright Orange sky
the trees dance and you hear the wind sing
Peace abounds and one’s heart takes wing

Yes I will follow the Yellow brick road
and live in harmony …it shall be told
