Facebook | Victor Chatham: "Day 21 in June; It Rained

Sitting on the front porch the sun gone from my face
The summer solstice brings showers and cools the place
Enjoying the moment; not thinking much about future or past... See More
Looking out at trees and a variety of growing grass
I hear the distance rumble of US Highway 45 sounds
South and north they go; I care not where they are bound
Louder than thunder is the afternoon songs of the birds
They seem to sing for sheer joy and not to be heard
The thunder rolls from south to north in the western sky
At peace and no need to ask the question “Why?”
A cardinal flies across the plain of my quiet rest"
