Moments

in the sun laying on towel
paying in puddles with a dog
surfing at myrtle beach
walking at cades cove or
any smoky mountain trail,
living in the shadows of
our ancestors, log cabins
living off the land...
kayaking on manmade lakes
or canoeing on the seine,
dancing in the moonlight
wearing silk pajamas,
combing hair around the ears
eating corn off the cob
smoking a corn cob pipe,
spitting tobacco on the street,
we live in moments fondly
some are disgusting
moments nonetheless
and always remembered.
