Using the lyrics from This Land is My Land, This Land is Your Land.
Woodrow Wilson "Woody" Guthrie (July 14, 1912 – October 3, 1967) is best known as an American singer-songwriter and folk musician, whose musical legacy includes hundreds of political, traditional and children's songs, ballads and improvised works.
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and me.
As I went walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me.
I roamed and I rambled and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
While all around me a voice was sounding
Saying this land was made for you and me.
When the sun came shining, and I was strolling
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
A voice was chanting, As the fog was lifting,
This land was made for you and me.
As I went walking I saw a sign there
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing."
But on the other side it didn't say nothing,
That side was made for you and me.
Nobody living can ever stop me,
As I go walking that freedom highway;
Nobody living can ever make me turn back
This land was made for you and me.
In the squares of the city, In the shadow of a steeple;
By the relief office, I'd seen my people.
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking,
Is this land made for you and me?
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and me.

I'll be singing that song all day now I'm sure.
Well done my friend. You are the KING of Worlde!
Very patriotic!
The colors of our wedding were red, white and blue.
It's a pretty wordle, for sure.
I just watched a special on PBS about him last week! Sad how his life ended. One never knows how things will go. Nice tribute! :)
I wondered why you asked if I could stream that song this morning....and now I know. :)
Cool Iggy I love the way the words just jump out at you, HUGS

Cool wordie. One of my favorite songs. Except I really didn't want it running through my head all day! LOL
Hugssssss
Help me out. I see these wordles everywhere, but I'm not sure I get it. Maybe there is nothing to get??? I'm so confused. LOL
It just shakes up the words from your post and creates this little piece of art? Or are you doing something special and making the words you want large, LARGE? Is there a pattern to reading these, or are they not really to be read? See, I'm confused.
Awesome choice of topic for the Wordle this week.
Oh wait...today's Saturday....I gotta get mine done for the week!!
