When Katharine Bates placed pen on paper, surely she had my beautiful home state in mind.
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
Happy Birthday, Colorado!
