at silent displaced victims,
creating rivers of homeless
multi-degenerating non-thriving refugees?
Where are the all growed up
nurturing regenerate adults
in our capital cities?

And a barn owl hoovers over
An old water tank with a...

With rounded river eyes and an Alfalfa smile.

Playing hard at the various outdoor games and chases,
Of our fleeting childhood years...

Home Is Where the Heart Is
There are pieces of a quilt, that I still call my home
They are kept alive in memory, and are there to keep me warm

My most entertaining pre-pubescent memories
of spring's most sacred times,
when occasionally left

outside for further natural/spiritual embedded nest
Include a warm and...

and starts air guitaring in his chair
Just when you were on the verge of
hitting...

Autumn approached about a week ago as stealthily as a fox!
The corn has been shucked and the golden fodder stands in shocks.

I’m a-starting to *pavo tremble

Surrounded by barren fields and prickly brambles.
