Sons and Daughters of Kansas
by Martha Adams Meek (C) Sept. 9, 2000
Kansas skies are smiling,
Fields nod with amber grain;
It's the golden days of harvest,
Now autumn's here again.
The rains of spring have come and gone,
They brought a blessing sweet;
For birds are singing, flowers bloom,
And calves run and leap.
The river rises with the flood
And flows on to the sea;
These all sing a song of love
That fills the heart of me.
The dear flint hills of Kansas
Are home sweet home to me;
There's no other place on God's green earth
That we would rather be.
For we are sons of Kansas,
We love beyond compare;
The streams and hills of Kansas,
And her daughters sweet and fair.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.
