We're in the Country for a few Days (COVID )
Another world right here
almost open again although there are masks
life is the same incredible May bubble
every single thing more beautiful
than before more beautiful than ever possible
to remember: white lilacs, black locust trees,
granddaughter doing cartwheels and splits
sing songs from Zombies 2 and we all
eat dinner on the porch One of Those Dinners
chicken and ribs asparagus from a local farmer
here this is all that's real right now.
