Oh, This Summer Day Virginia Salter rumble grumble sound waves tumble nagging me to work airplanes up mowers down dustmen running all ‘round town breeze is fanning summer air you’d think I’d surely be out there getting licks in very early while the sky’s not feeling surly oh, awright I’ll get off my duff come away though awf’ly tough © July 18, 2001 |

I really liked the cadence and rhyme with this visual piece -- especially the opening lines. A fun read with thoughts on daily life worth living... -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |

heh heh heh thank you all, it's always hard to get going when it's yard work versus computer play, composition, communication. But, I like yard work better than house work, at least in the summer. |
