Late May Conversation

Raspberries are ready,

for dessert tonight, a cobbler.

Atop the pear tree

cardinal couple commiserates

on scarcity of bugs, little ones

flown the nest and coming rain.

Fireworks at the lake this weekend.

Shall we go and take a blanket?

Perhaps dance at the concert

in Municipal Park to music

of a visiting polka band?

You can sport the vest I made,

I’ll wear the sundress you like.

We’ll dream by the watch fire

of local soldiers who came home

to their families safe and sound.
