Watching the fire die down I am lucky I don't live in a town For there I could not sit on my porch And watch a fire in my backyard Just me, some lemonade and my dog What more could I wish for Company...not a chance For on this day All I am going to do is play All I long for is Peace in my little world Quiet for my mind A comfortable chair for my behind And the company of my girl As the world around me turns dark A kind of hush has fallen Not even the dogs are barking The bird have stopped their singing All is quiet in my little world Now if I only had some..... Marshmallows |

Alan~ Oh, great ... here I sit with no marshmallows and you've made me VERY hungry ! I'll bet the sun doesn't go down tomorrow night without a big bag of 'em ! Sounds like you enjoy the same quiet and serene country living that I do. Thanks for sharing. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Alan, a very simple and enchanting recount of a lovely end~of~day's scene. Peaceful, to be sure. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
