Poem for her 973

Beach House

We liked Larry's beach house

Shelia his girlfriend had made it

Minimal just a lot of kitchen

And chairs everywhere

Front porch screened to keep the bugs away

Back porch too

Though there the view was flowers

All local 

We spent a few weeks a year there

Like this week

Happy Birthday Babe,

Charles.

Poem for her 972

Butterflies at the Beach

Off in flowers white

Blue

Green

Swaying pink

In sea grass dunes

The two butterflies flew

Vacation one flapped

Just here to see you

The other flapped

Happy Birthday Babe,

Charles.
