Jeremy Martin Poet Free verse

Radio

Three hundred miles
Only a few hours
Faded green signs;
The sleep in my eyes
Crackling stations 
Between mountains 
They comfort me
Like a good book
Or the pull of a memory
Little glimpses of peace
White noise moments
They're gifts from time

Timothy Hicks May 12, 2013 at 11:20 PM Reminds me of trips to my grandma's cabin. Late at night, trying to find any station that'll actually play clearly. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
