graham ******* mud pie at pop's,
rest his soul
the rush of new friendships,
the faith in letting go
reading when you’re lonely,
chillin' while you’re old,
rivers in the blinding heat,
campfires in the cold
car rides with the windows down,
jogging with the pooch,
biking through a foreign town,
stealing a native smooch
gum drops,
lemon heads,
marshmallow peeps,
sunday dinner,
carnivals,
local meet-and-greets
snow days,
warm winter days,
soup to ward the flu,
paydays,
big-puppy days,
and coming home to you
for you.
