I am the Heartland,
Great and wide.
I sing of hope.
I sing of pride.

Welcome to America's Heartland -- a place where the golden wheat waves in the breeze, where great rivers flow, and cornfields stretch across the plains in glorious patchwork quilts of greens and yellows and browns. Cattle graze in lush green pastures, horses and sheep fill the barns, and a new born calf stands damp and warm in the sun. This is the Heartland, where the farmer is king -- but over everything, Nature reigns supreme.
