headed home to dreamy town
my heart and soul are there
it's just a sleepy little burg
with a homey, quiet air
the homes are closely nestled
together on a hill
the people recognize me
it's such a welcome thrill
children's voices call me
aunt julie, play a game
what blessed reassurance
that everything's the same
mom is in the kitchen
and dad is in his chair
my siblings' love surrounds me
oh what a love we share
delicious food and laughter
a trivia game to play
my soul sighs in satisfaction
oh how i want to stay
goodbye my special dreamy town
i'll say a little prayer
that when i next come visit
i'll find my solace there
happy thanksgiving, all!!

There is something of a "Russian" flavour to this artwork. Dreamy indeed! Home is where the heart is and these homes look like they are full of heart. How blessed you are to have everyone together and happy in dreamy town...
Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving!

The houses in your "dreamy town" are so so wonderful, Julie. I agree there is something rather Russian about them.
Oh, I love your dreamy town!
Beautiful art. I like the paintings with the houses. I like the textured paintings.
