Love Always
the tunnel
the end of it all
bursting through like shrapnel
the city lights singing the perfect song
as the wind snaps along
Love Always
the Glory Days
and the songs that capture them
and the stages that make them
and the plays on the field
that will be played and replayed for a lifetime
Love Always
the island of misfit toys
where bubbles cause as much awe
as the eighth that inspired them
from the Big Boy to the eighteenth green
you will all make my typewriter
Love Always
the holidays
the people around the table and the t.v.
too stubborn to speak their cares
both the M * A * S * H episodes
and the long rides home
Love Always
the books
the books and the characters and the morals
and the books
and the teachers that shared them
we accept the love we think we deserve
Love Always
