Mar 2017
Have you ever leaned against
Blowing howling blinding winds
Watched sunsets yellow turning red
Just to get a feeling of a short cry
Howled long at the shining moon
On a bitter cold winter's night
Jumped at the sudden sound
Of a thunder's shaking boom
Hid in the arms of your best love
Danced with happy in pattering rain
Caught a frog by it's jumping legs
Measured time with an inch worm
Blown dandelion fluff to float in
The middle of a forever summer
Chased a pretty drifting butterfly
Wishing you were one too
Only just for a moment or two
Like you did as a young child

In New Mexico, as a kid, I did all this, I know I'm not the only one!
