Memories of family trips to national parks are nestled in the hearts of so many Americans, in that part of the heart that’s connected to the innocent and wonder-filled days of childhood. For country music artist Doreen Taylor, the colors of these memories remain vibrant and they paint the portrait of her native land.
In the new official anthem of the National Parks Conservation Association, “Colors of the USA,” Taylor recalls the green grass surrounding children as they laugh and play, she recalls the rainbow she saw as a child in Yellowstone Park.
“I would have to say Yellowstone is one of the national parks that has had the most impact on me,” Taylor told Epoch Times. “To this day I still remember what it felt like at the mere age of 7, standing in front of the Lower Falls in Yellowstone; as a rainbow appeared a single bird flew overhead. It was one of the most touching and memorable moments of my life and that was my inspiration for ‘Colors of the USA.’”
