WATAUGA COUNTY
This poem is fondly dedicated to
my gocd friend Judge -John H. Ringham,
wilb whom I spent a mighty ,
pleasant half-hour.?A mold w
Carvel, Baltimore, Mil. |]
The county of Watauga, where the i'
sun prefers to shine.
Is the greatest of all counties in the j<
State of Caroline; j1
Its mountains anil its hill tops are I
iust the shade of blue <
To fetch me back, Watauga, when 1
I'm away from you! !
The pattern of Watauga is often cop- :
ied, friends.
But the genuine Watauga with its
roadways and their bends
Are the kind that lead one onward,
ever toward the setting sun,
To the mountains of Watauga, when j
our daily task is done.
There's a gentleness and fragrance in
that part of Caroline
They call Watauga County, where the
sun prefers to shine;
And I just wish, Watauga, as I think
Auiu uivugms or you.
That I could stay forever, 'neath your
sky-line ever blue.
