Don't Ask ME Where We're Going

by JennyGordon

Is it "funny" how miniscule my writing is when's done from the back seat? (sonnet #MMMMMMMCMLXXI) Up north, blue smiles at intervals (to scale) Frae stubbled fields' expanse, 'non rolling thence From one side of the view to th'other, dense Half greyish region clouds, south, where signs hail With "Quincy in so many miles;" how pale, Long minutes draw up navy to gird sense Framed to a modern "christian" novel, whence I spell out "bored" to academya's tale. Does rain cull ghostly mists to romance fer All that green woods off in the distance?  Do We drive straight to their farm? can't now as twere, The Illinois and Mississippi too Far swollen, roads closed.  What I've known, is't poor? Suffice it, "city" boots swear "rural" is new. 18May19c

Oh, four hours there and the same back, it was worth it.
