Appalachian Soul
into these mountains
life is sacred and whole
i came in search of
Appalachia’s soul
into these mountains
hollers and coves
on native trails
in Nature’s groves
into these mountains
Appalachian folk
thrive as ever, adapting
sturdy as oak
into these mountains
lifetimes of courage
where The Smokies are home
on an endless Blue Ridge
into these mountains
life is sacred and whole
i came and discovered the depth
of Appalachia’s soul
