Your mighty redwoods tickle the sky as they sway.
Land connected with a golden bridge across the bay.

The blue sky turned fire red at sunset.
The ocean’s thunderous waves sure to whet.

Mountainous domes and halfway homes.
Crunch rocks and sandy loams.

Shattered dreams and evil schemes.
Nothing is ever as it seems.

Palm trees moving in the breeze.
Traffic jams in the big cities.

Constant state of drought.
Constant state of doubt.

Competing for the biggest clout.
Ending up in the wipeout.

Oh Golden State, you fulfill and neglect.
You danger and you protect.

I wish she could truly see
How much love I have for thee.
