Iambe was closing the hood George’s old truck was idling smooth And no longer dripped green ooze. I handed her a cup of coffee And she plopped down cross-legged On the grass beside the drive Staring into her cup. Those blues turned to look at me And no iceberg reflected chills But the mornings sky softened. “It’s going to be hot.” I offered in small talk Thinking about the gap in her overalls And turning my feelings into Something banal. “Yeah.” She offered with a small twist of lip that if she was angry would have meant run quick…cause she’s about to pull something. Instead, she rose to her feet,reached for my hand And led me towards my old truck, “lets drive” was all she said. Couple of miles down the road To Cooper’s Creek, She slipped the overalls off Then slid over to my side of the truck And asked me if I was still warm. |

I knew I should've bought a truck instead of that convertable! Glad to see this series continuing, Ron. |
