May the Force Be With You

I like to write on the screened-in porch
By the light of the grinning tiki torch
Listening to nature's sounds
Ideas sound abound
Ignited by the creative force

Lovely descriptive piece, Susan. I can imagine being there. My birthday's May 4th and the kids at school used to think it was hilarious 'May the Fourth be with you.'
