forever blue the
skies smile down
on the treasured
place where love resides
the fog lifts from
the pond so chill
and ducks and geese
float where they will
the flowered trees
in pink and white
make a whimsical
sight in spring
the tire swing hangs
where it always did
for the flock of
children to play and climb
what better service
to the ancestral home
where love abounds
and love resides
a warm wood stove
keeps cozy below
the family portraits
watch from the wall
a row of kittens dot
the upper landing
a tank of angelfish
and betas ripples and bubbles
and children’s tales
report on the ipod
such, the activity
the day the snow began
in the Strickler
house beneath the ceiling fan
