Des Moines

**Title: "From Des Moines to the Beach"** *(Verse 1)* In the heart of the Midwest, where the rivers flow, A little black-and-white pup, with curls aglow. Born in Des Moines, where the prairies breathe, A world far from oceans, far from the seas. *(Pre-Chorus)* But fate has a plan, a story untold, Of a man from the West, with a heart of gold. He never knew what the road would bring, When the stars aligned for this fateful spring. *(Chorus)* From Des Moines to the beach, across the miles, Hera found a home, a life of smiles. Through fields and waves, they made their way, An unlikely bond, in the light of day. *(Verse 2)* She wasn’t a dog for the city lights, But the California sun felt just right. He saw her there, in that Iowa town, A twist of fate turned his life around. *(Pre-Chorus)* Her eyes held a spark, a tale so wild, A spirit untamed, a heart like a child. And he knew in that moment, it was meant to be, This little dog from Iowa, now running free. *(Chorus)* From Des Moines to the beach, across the miles, Hera found a home, a life of smiles. Through fields and waves, they made their way, An unlikely bond, in the light of day. *(Bridge)* Now she runs by the shore, where the tide meets the sand, A queen in her kingdom, her pawprints command. But in her heart, there’s a whisper, a call, Of the place where it started, she remembers it all. *(Chorus)* From Des Moines to the beach, across the miles, Hera found a home, a life of smiles. Through fields and waves, they made their way, An unlikely bond, in the light of day. *(Outro)* So here’s to Hera, and the chance they took, A story written in every paw and look. From Iowa plains to the ocean’s reach, Love found its home, from Des Moines to the beach.
