My family lives so far away,
I am here and there they stay.
I remember a time of fun and walks
and now I have to deal with locks.
Can you guess where I live now?
It is very windy and very loud.
I miss the quietness of my home.
I miss my family when I am alone.
For now I wait as long as it takes for me to return to the green mountain state.
I miss the fall and even the snow and August is cold here wouldn't you know.
I remember the kisses they would leave upon my cheek
And I remember chasing my brother by the creek.
I was free to roam wherever I wanted,
But now I have to worry of being murdered and taunted.
I have no friends, I have no foes.
Wish I was with my family those.
My Family So Far Away
Those
