Sunset on My Porch

I think that I am learning some things about style from a friend.

You'd like sunset on my porch,

Dean walks Bridgit past ...
Shelby is less than neighborly
But Dean & I share a wave.

Erin passes with Bubba and Mrs. Sanchez,
Shelby bristles and Mrs. Sanchez's little
Chihuahua feet step a bit more quickly.
But the people always wave.

The garter snakes occassionaly slide
Past, but no harm comes to them.
We suffer snakes well on our street

The birds make their bird noises.
And the sky simmers blaze orange and pink
While the ice cubes clink in my glass.

You'd like sunset on my porch.

I know I love the pic you chose for this poem; I can see me sitting there every evening with my coffee or tea also, listening to the birds and waving at the neighbors. I love the sunrises and sunsets. It is my favorite parts of the day. I think it is cool how you named your passer byes with there dogs, giving this poem the homey touch. You can feel the comfort. Makes me want to get ready for bed now....lol
