Green Eyes
The cat sits on the front steps
Lord of the neighborhood

Two blocks to the east
A little league game is being played
There are cheers
As some boy hits the ball

It is so rare
That such a wash of stars
Should fill the sky
Crickets chirping in the lawn

Neither of us
Want to say goodnight

Nothing is certain
That much we’ve learned
And summer isn’t long

look at the cat and think about fame
look at the boys and think about game
lost stars? lights claim
lost focus? lover's shame.
Dreaming crikets and Equator's summer
may bring "US" not in the same frame.
and 99(goodnight) always has 88(byebye) to blame.

enjoyed as always. naturaly smooth.
