After Marsha De La O
Droplets shook from the branch, causing ripples on the water.
The birds flew overhead, cawing for their loved ones and
Hoping for a summer in which the sun will make the sand gold.
A hope that the Brew-
er's on the hill in
Their miniscule home have. It is the
Same, but different. Theirs is a quiet
Dream that slips along in silver strands, calling from deeps
Unknown. Stairs that you would think utter disturbance at
The slightest change in weight. However, the-
y let their wishes lay far
From them. Waiting for the end
To have them be realized. Sleeping on the brink of
Time. Praying that they get to live until tomorrow where the
Future looks brighter than their past, while all the birds hope for is the end of the season.
