Cool April night deception
Rickety , southern hamlets become -
moonlit Chamber of Commerce photos ,
cornfields turn into backdrops for -
science fiction TV shows
Townsfolk walking to their mailboxes -
become rumors of mystery and intrigue
Old Bloodhound porch dogs are as sleepy as ever
Shooting stars zoom overhead , the last train of the
evening flies by , the whippoorwills lullaby
All is quite normal , and well tonight ...
