There's something satisfying
About enjoying the afternoon sun
With a lime and whiskey, drinking
And reading prolific, piquant poetry by everyone!
Present in the moment, chomping and crooning...

I ain't living in squalla
But supernatural, techno colour;
Back here on my wooden deck,
I throw back a whiskey, with lime, check √
I hear a banjo in the back of my mind,
And smell fire burning in time.
Recipe books surround and cake rests on my outdoor table,
Country living could very well be it's label...
But I see it as "God’s waiting room" —
Mowers murmur in neighbours' lawns,
Buzzing bees and billowy butterflies
circumnavigate newly planted trees,
make me yawn like a pawn.
In these moments I lean back and let my soul bloom.

Wisdom comes after the fact —
But it can be drawn now in the present.
Compassionate jewels crown my head,
Trusting You, despite my intent, makes my heart ruby red, without lament.
