(Now) The Land of 10,000,000 Lakes
By Terry Scott Niebeling
Relatively Obscure;
But Only Now,
This year
(Must’ve been the Weather)
Thoughts at present
Winter resentment
(Had to’ve been a Tasteless Pleasure)
Summertime
And
Rhymed lines
Blank verse
And
Mini-skirts
Beer on a deck
And
Sunburns that hurt
Been stuck-inside-life
And
There’s nothing worse
Darkest before the light
And
Patience makes all the worth
(Blinded by the light-eyesight)
Times in the Midwest
With the new season we’ll wear less for dress:
Abandon bundles…
Step through Puddles…
Avoid Potholes and Passive Aggressive Mumbles.
We still (always) look forward to the warm days ahead,
Sunlight makes it easier to leave the bed.
