Reminiscence

Counting dust mice on your fence,
Waiting for the rain to fall ...
Silently giving in to recall
The green ticket worth sixpence
For our town carnival ...
Experimenting with eloquence ...
Counting dust mice on their fence ...
Waiting for the rain to fall ...
List'ning to a wildcat's call ...
Giving in to indolence ...
Giving up our innocence ...
At our town's carnival.
I still sit with dilligence,
Counting dust mice on your fence ...
