Listening to my country music
Loving my rainbow shirt
Eating cantaloupe for days
Wondering where that 6 year old shirt is
Which speaking of 6 years is when I'll go!
On my way to Italy, a tour of Venice
That will surely inspire some poetry
Like my first poetic inspiration, Poe
And still my favorite poet is Poe
And I'll write my evening poems
As I survey the area on my island
And of course in this poem I destroy McDonalds
As I prepare to move to Texas
So I can ride my horses in a feild
And have my pretty garden!
Lots of flowers. Purple and blue ones.
Yellow roses. Violets. Daisies!
All color daisies I can find. Cross breeds!
Swimming in a pool, newly built
My kids playing soccer with me
And then you come over
Bearing 'Loaded Questions'
So we sit there all through the night
After the kids are off to sleep
Playing on a ghastly fright
As you inquire as to my favorite clothing item
And bet on my 6 years shirt
I answer with a camo 'fitted' cap.
Girls, Norma Jean, and crossed guns
And through out it we say I'm caring
But a creative lack of self-essteem
