Back Porch

From the back porch
I'm on the edge of the world
Beyond what I can see is mystery
The Columbine and new tomato plants
The grass in need of mowing
The fresh thick, fragrant summer air
All of it pleases me as I look out
I wonder about what lay beyond
Other back yards full of promise
Hidden from view of the busy road
My own private Eden, exclusive
