BETWEEN STORMS
we are between storms
in Massachusetts
late February sun
streams through lace curtains
as high noon approaches
we are between storms
in Massachusetts
late February sun
streams through lace curtains
as high noon approaches
Corelli is playing on station 102.5
I taste cashews, almonds, walnuts
and some nuts I cannot name
a sip of Shiraz - ah!
a nibble of Vermont cheddar
and (if you don’t like this
you don’t like my poem)
a chomp of sweet gherkin pickle
we are in between storms
in Massachusetts
late February sun
streams through lace curtains
I am seventy-four
I am happy!
It is high noon!
