Southern Arizona, The Land I Love - By Joel Smith in Tucson, AZ

Southern Arizona - "The Land I Love"

Southern Arizona is my home. I wander, I drift, and I find my way home.

The wild west wind greets me here. She's an old friend of mine.

I try to ignore the ugliness of politics that scars the land.

And try to focus on the beauty and the obscure.

I look down on things and marvel at the beauty that surrounds me.

I try to see what others fail to see or grasp.

This is the land I love.

I can't imagine living anywhere else these days.

I live in a unique land.

I discovered years ago that the world doesn't have to be somewhere else.

It's all how you see it and how you accept it.
