I feel fine.
The lines of my mind
are smooth - no ruffles
of family dramas
I have been playful,
I have been thoughtful,
I've laughed, and talked maybe
a bit too much, but with no painful consequence.
I've been misty, but only a little,
and not when anyone saw
Turning the light on inside
has changed the outside color
from blue to black.
Crickets and a cool breeze
preside over nightfall.
Seems like wherever I am
is where I belong, for now.
