Out in the prairie, so vast and wide
A pioneer child went for a ride
Discovering sights both new and old
And stories that were yet untold

The colors were vivid, the sky so blue
Except for the clouds, a pure white hue
The grasses swayed in the gentle breeze
And the child felt a sense of ease

Exploring the entire land that day
The child found beauty in every way
A world of wonder just waiting to be seen
And a place where the child could be free

The pioneer child had a heart full of joy
For the prairie was where dreams could employ
So let us all go out and explore
And find the vivid wonders that we adore.
