Poem for her 661

Dear Readers,


Vacation shades

The new glasses were cool
They split the light
You could read with them
And drive with them
See the dash board and
See the signs
Vacation shades over the windows
The night light a candle
Over there by the fire place dark
The heavy skies light rain
Hot the next day
Wind and surf and then sand
The toes washed before carpet
The days slow
The nights long and filled
Card games and back rubs
Toasted bread and eggs
Some flavor of vanilla in a mug
Some hot cocoa by a tub
Hot shower longer than an hour
Things slowly fading
The vacation a lifetime
Soft dreams of you

Happy Birthday Babe,

Charles.
