( gold in them hills )

 

"i know it doesn't seem that way, but maybe it's the perfect day, even though the bills are piling, and maybe lady luck ain't smiling.

but if we'd only open our eyes, we'd see the blessings in disguise, that all the rain clouds are fountains, though our troubles seem like mountains.

there's gold in them hills.  there's gold in them hills.  so don't lose heart.  give the day a chance to start.

every now and then life says, where do you think you're going so fast, we're apt to think it cruel but sometimes, it's a case of cruel to be kind.

and if we'd get up off our knees, why then we'd see the forest for the trees, and we'd see the new sun rising, over the hills on the horizon.

there's gold in them hills. there's gold in them hills.  so don't lose faith.  give the world a chance to say...

a word or two, my friend, there's no telling how the day might end, and we'll never know until we see, that there's gold in them hills.

there's gold in them hills.  so don't lose heart.  give the day a chance to start.

there's gold in them hills.  there's gold in them hills."

What a gorgeous set! I love the yellow tones and golden flair, beautiful. The inclusion of the arrow is smart. Pretty stuff Rebecca, pretty stuff :)

This dreamscape is alive with the grace of spirited beauty.
As precious as sunlight.
It makes my heart glow.

Lovely photographs Rebecca, kind of magical yet earthy at the same time.
