Favorite Place
Early summer-
fragrant lilacs
dip in the breeze
dwarfed by the spreading
branches of the surreal sycamore–
the giant of the neighborhood whose
canopy engulfs the backyard
in soothing shade
where grandkids
sing
read
laugh
play violin
plan skits
paint
giggle
dance
plan meals
face paint
draw
experiment
clean fish
on and around the old yard swing.
