Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Pecan Pit Stop

PECAN PIT STOP

A soft Spring breeze sweeps us off the highway,
down serpentine paths, hushed pastoral roads,

past simple wildflowers, and golden rows,
and pecan trees - the harvest of a country store

with tables of pies, chocolate, assorted nuts.
A pleasing plethora, a habitual stop.

More than halfway home, spurred on fore twilight,
our suitcase swimming close to the equator.
