Thunder hangs over,
drinking chilled beers with lightning.
Candle wicks burn out.

Of all things I know to do,
pushing you feels so true.
Because this peace I wish to keep,
I push you for,
10 more minutes of blissful sleep.

Pastor decipher,
an ancient message. Listen.
Truth and lies creep through.
-
Summer’s neighbor knocks.
Pennant races, Charlie Brown.
Flannel season glows.

Enemies of envy,
tighten your grip.
Hold your tongue.
Don’t let it slip.

Wisps of childhood,
skip through palmetto bushes.
Memories flicker.

Blue springs, Spanish moss
Bald fades under Yankee caps
I’m home. It’s still home.

Orion. Peaceful hunter.
Loyal friend. Leave winter
on my doorstep.
