Another June
Another June ...
Underneath the same sun,
Much like the last forty
And now its forty-one
Forty-one long years ...
Below the same sky,
The finches are still here
And somehow, so am I
To see the zinnia
Come into full bloom,
To see the sunset
Longer does it loom
To hang wet laundry
Flapping in the breeze,
Where goes a bumble bee
Buzzing 'round my knees
Another June ...
Come and gone so slow,
Still, I am not sad ...
To see her finally go.
