J-First Summer
Sitting on the porch
Swimming in the pond
Summer pastimes
Earned with winter work
Reading, reaping rewards
Lazily letting life be leisure
You sit your porch
I swim my pond
We reach across the miles
With mind, heart, telephone
Now and then
The distance too far
For our being
A car, yours or mine
Covers the miles
We can no longer
Tolerate
January 27,1997
