Dragging No Drama

Written By: D. Collins 1/2/25
As I reach my prime in my mid-sixties.
I have a vow in dragging no drama with me.
I want my heels kicked up on a sandy beach.
Getting real F'd up on umbrella drinks.
Taking a long walk to get my exercise.
Having to back up because of rising tide.
Leaving my footprint in the just cooled sand.
Wearing damn near nothing but a headband.
If you bring drama you cannot come with me.
I'm retiring to some water that is drama-free.
I will scour my toes with fine, white sand.
But drama is forbidden in Darrell's Promised Land.
