Don’t Tell

Don’t tell a soul where we are.
Please, hold yourself in check.
It’s perfect here and not like there.
We’re never going back.

Cloudless skies, the brightest blue
Birds sing, fly and sing some more
Finally, we’ve found our due
On this, our own beatific shore.

Warm year-a-round, this mountain haven
With hummingbirds that fill the air
Our great fortune, being chosen
To live like an exotic pair

Of love birds, young with outstretched wings
We glide ‘round every bend
And we’ll light on all exciting things
Until the very end.

OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
