Fireworks

When we were young, in the wonder years
Summers would bring the warm nights
When we found relief from the heat of day
And the stars and the moon were our lights.

And we went to the park in July
To watch the jeweled displays
Safe with our parents close by
Watching fireworks bursting away 

And the sky filled with  colored fiery rain
And smoky clouds drifted away
Lifting my heart for a time and  space
Bringing a dream for another day

15 Aug 2017, Alex Birthday

Today and yesterday we moved the safes downstairs. Alex worked the hardest. Amber and Duncan took Alex out for his birthday.

The wind is coming up. Its 1 in the morning and I'm sitting on the patio feeling the wind sweep past.

Soon I will go back to bed.

The Crickets are loud but in the winter it will be silent out here no crickets no birds and only Frosty air and snow all around.

I love balmy nights of summer. I will miss them.
