Sunny Night
Darling, it’s a sunny night with all the stars burning up like favors
you and I, heads back laughing like new lovers
candle light and body heat
days of rain settling down like dew
into the earth which will steam when it’s sunny
human children are hard to please
you say half asleep
smelling like soap and dirt
I agree
you breathe in rhythm with night
Tell me what you are thinking
