I like my crispy
not over burnt just a nicely
toasted marshmallow

Off to the cabin on the lake for a much need rest
Time to get away and experience nature at its best
The SUV is loaded let the journey begin
The kids in the back all with big grins
After a long and tiring drive time to put my feet up and kick back
Dinner by the campfire, but first firewood to stack
A chorus of songs fill the air as marshmallows start to ignite
The flames from the burning wood light up the night
The moon shines down brightly from high in the night sky
Wolves in the distance let out their welcoming cry
An evening of fun and excitement has come to an end
A picture postcard of our retreat ready to send

Clouds skies blue and gray puffy white settle so they like puffy floating marshmallows~

Cocoa warms my toes all the way down.
Marshmallows please and graham crackers.
Gingerbread too? Yes, thank you!
Ruin my supper? No.
Thank you very much.
Warm and toasty.
Delicious!
Thank you
Mom.

SPACE BLUE SKIES WITH FLOATING MARSHMALLOWS
of the whiten clouds
the pattern is in the skies spills
broad is the space blue

Without you sweet guys, how would I get through
Your friendship gives me strength to battle the blues
So I'm just letting you know
That white stuff ain't snow
They're clouds of marshmallows so don't be confused

Sebring: long ago
humid heat leaches will
blue lakes and brown swamps
“Caution Alligators”
transformative sunsets
clockwork storms and
lightning balls
cactus spine sabotage
fire ants flip flops
alligators eat marshmallows
from a stick
trees costumed in air plants
and Spanish moss
Grand Prix dreams
beaches buried deep in shells
green waters beckon
Jays riding my head
garden shed baby squirrels bouncing
people I've loved
O, the people I've loved.

Into my cup I stare
To believe, the tea leaves read
Like scrambled eggs on wheat
Remnants of, a beast I chose to eat
Once again, I look
And still no message here
Hidden, nor anywhere
It’s what I choose to see
The facts which lie before me
Are that, I asked for rye
And specifically over easy
Now that’s the true conspiracy
And wait a darn minute!
That’s why the fates deny me
Those are white chunks
Marshmallows in hot chocolate

The troubled angel looked around,
his charge he could not find.
He was right there a moment ago,
and had been told to stay in line.
The angel looked on every cloud
and on top of every rainbow.
Then he gave a troubled sigh,
his charge had wondered off below.
The angel went down to retrieve his charge,
and return him to his proper level.
There he was sitting bold as you please,
roasting marshmallows with the Devil.

Yummy wish can touch
They float in the sky high above
Wanting to be eaten.

The fluffy white clouds
Are spreading coolness and shade;
Relief from the sun.

Summertime is approaching
The smell of the fresh water lake
Waking in the morning, to sit on the rocks
Listening to the cries of the Loon and Whooping Crane
Oh how this time is missed
To finally see the last snow melt away
The warm spring days arrive
With a year wiser, we appreciate the wilderness
To be one on one with nature
To spend the summer with each other,
Nature is ours to explore
Side by side we enjoy our land
Bonfires at night with toasted marshmallows
Coconut and Raspberry Wine
This time we hold so dearly
Our time together for reflecting
