up comes the chamomile up comes the sweet mace up comes the bee balm up comes the flox up comes the goldenrod up comes the blue mist up come the asters up comes the rose we’re planting new beds we're pulling up weeds amending the soil and waiting for rain up comes the creeping thyme up comes the beard’s tongue up comes the parsley up comes the thrift up comes the agastache up comes the rose mallow up comes the salvia up comes the sage up comes the heuchera up comes the mountain mint up come the blueberries up comes the dill up come the daffodils up come the tulips up come the irises up come the peas we’re waiting for rain we’re waiting for rain and waiting for rain

I’m alone at home this evening sitting at the kitchen table working through a tuna sandwich I was wrapped up in some reading sitting at the kitchen table I’m alone at home this evening I’m alone at home this evening sitting at the kitchen table working through a tuna sandwich I’m alone at home this evening sitting at the kitchen table working through a tuna sandwich I’m alone at home this evening sitting at the kitchen table I’m alone at home this evening sitting at the kitchen table working through a tuna sandwich I’m alone at home this evening sitting at the kitchen table working through a tuna sandwich I’m alone at home this evening sitting at the kitchen table working through a tuna sandwich sitting at the kitchen table I thought I heard somebody sigh

standing underneath a tree while the rain soaked through our clothes we climbed up from the river to an open field right as the sun was breaking through walking on heathered hills through the kissing gate a herd of cows out in front so we walked around another way breathing deep clouds roll in it’s getting dark off a narrow lane from town over stiles and heavy mud we took the footpath out across the Manifold quilted fields spreading miles around walking on heathered hills through the kissing gate a herd of cows out in front so we walked around another way

at the keyboard in a house that isn’t ours hiding in the living room white sofa has an alarm on it for the cat let’s do something I’m bored of nothing let’s do something cheese and crackers chocolate digestives chips and salsa popcorn let’s do something we could go to the King of Prussia we could go to the King of Prussia we could go to the King of Prussia we could go to the King look through bargain bins see a movie In the Bedroom that’s a holiday mood we could go to the King of Prussia we could go to the King of Prussia we could go to the King of Prussia we could go to the King shortbread cookies chocolate orange toffee fudge candy canes cheese and crackers chocolate digestives chips and salsa popcorn
