And that red wheelbarrow glazed with rainwater beside the white chickens? And the snake that came to my water trough, and I in my pajamas for the heat?<br /><br />Oops! For a moment there, I confused you with William Carlos Williams and D.H. Lawrence.<br /><br />Well done! I crown you the official poet laureate for the Nation of Hillmomba!<br /><br />**************<br />Kathy,<br />Mr. Flashlight, and all his brothers, are carefully stashed. To uproot them could upset the delicate equilibrium of my sanity. I'll just leave the basement door open wide so the light shines out, and hope that no rodents scurry inside while my back is turned.Hillbilly Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18067833789262242514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8112514995333046518.post-21466604919576158342012-07-20T21:13:46.550-05:002012-07-20T21:13:46.550-05:00Will Mr. Flashlight be joining you on future excur...Will Mr. Flashlight be joining you on future excursiond in the wee hours of the morning?Kathy's Klotheslinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17881966393157941515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8112514995333046518.post-91569394080551521722012-07-20T20:54:08.218-05:002012-07-20T20:54:08.218-05:00Ode to Snake
