A Screened-In Porch
There’s nothing like a screened-in porch To help me to relax. It brings to me a comfort My apartment surely lacks. The birdsong and the swishing leaves, The swaying of the trees, Combined with the caresses Of the gentle summer breeze All add up to such a fine retreat That, on this lovely day, Every stressor in my life is somehow Swatted clean away. ...

A Screened-In Porch
The thunder booms; the rain, it pours. We're half inside and half outdoors. A screened-in porch brings Nature close But not enough to overdose. And so we sit and mix our tiles* As Nature ratchets up the dials. We gaze up at the stormy sky And dripping trees, while we stay dry. At last it ebbs as we play on Until the downpour's...

Screened-In
From gnats and moths and things unseen, I am protected by a screen. Mosquitoes land and flit away, Defeated for another day. Where once a citronella torch Repelled some pests, my screened-in porch Works better for, as you'd surmise, It's quite a lovely compromise... I'm not indoors nor am I out. The breeze dispels each shred of doubt; Yet insects cannot reach my skin Or that...

Sun Screened
Letting it grow, it's scratching the sky. Under its shadow, I survive. Further I climb. The leaves shown. I see a deep glow, not quite a (bright) shine.

Still we watch it grow. Still we understand we all need the same thing. A lighter soul, of unmatched quality. Bought by none and bound by...
