he walked up pointing his
cane at our flowers calling
to us saying I know your
people they're good people
we're all good people 'round
here we were good kids back
then I remember we didn't do
nothing real bad just got into
fistfights yeah we stole us some
watermelons those boys could play
ball your granddaddy was a pitcher
oh he had an arm we were just kids
he said well I just buried my son
he retired then he died it don't
seem right but you know
these things happen the sun's
shining today and we're still
here tell your daddy I knew his
daddy I always remember
good people
I picked a dandelion puffed
full with seed and blew
little pieces of life grabbed the wind
they danced their way through the cemetery
they looked like angels

Hi, Greg!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting my poems here on your lovely blog! I'm glad you enjoyed them. I'm not always sure that my point is getting through...
This looks like a nice place you have here--I'm going to add you to my "roll!"
Thanks!
