It's amazing how much grows,
Even while we wither and whine.
The heat of Florida,
A place of forests of life,
A place where inside is best,
And where sweat is daily.
A place where turtles crawl,
And birds sing and dolphins dance,
And squirrels run on cables for roads.
It's amazing how much lives;
Maybe we will, too,
If we give it a chance.
Mark's Addition: The problem is, I already gave Florida a chance. It didn't help.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite part is the squirrels on the cables for roads, its so pretty and paints such a picture :)
Squirrels using cables is something inspired by my great-grandma; she'd always sit outside, eat breakfast, and watch squirrels crawl over them! I think she even named those squirrels
