Sit outside with me on my back porch
Discover skeeters and flies buzzing
Life humming to welcome the day
Starlings flying through, startling
Settle yourself on my pallet furniture
Red cushions that are comfortable
Padded backs of floral design
Inclined to invite a cuddle
Catch a whiff of something lovely
Wonder what it is that’s sweet
Look over to notice the mint
Leaves lying on concrete
Savoring this moment together
Heaven meets earth to endear
Opening eyes to the ordinary
Experience it all right here
Hardtack Rat
