Movin' On South

Under the clanky aluminum conduit
I sit easy eyed, watching 
My work boots, drink up rainfall 
The lively band above 
Reprises once more
Her thunderous piece
Perking up the dog ears 
Breaking decibel charts
Notes striking between clouds caress
To release disdain or sorrowful mourn 
Release a tsunami of tremor
Heard from the apple boughs 
To the endless pastures 
Oh, but soon enough it shall pass
Movin' on south, as we tip our dampened cap 
Knowing we’ll be on our way
Akin to the skies sliding on south
Lending brightness
An emergence from darkness, one day
