Friday Barbecue in March
Golden light shimmers through eucalyptus.
We are gathered riverside today
for friends and food that lift us
into mellow moods and mirth-filled spirits.
Chicken wings glisten on the grill
while children sing and shout
in the chilly river thrill
of homemade boats swirling in whirlpools.
Dual frisbees whiz by
as we realize this might
be the night that marks
the start of our warmer lives.
The start of our warmer lives 💙
This poem is the start of my warmer life! It's already heating up my heart with its subtle grandeur and amicable imagery.
Nice one, Mike!
