Lets say we rode to
Mount Vernon and
Contemplated the river
Noted the way that stuart
Clouded the picture or
Perhaps was
Floating a ditty.
Lets say our thoughts
Came together
One was a resin
The other a catalyst
Ingraining our senses with
Flowers and gardens that
Bound from the past
On an historical journey
And tomorrow
Awoke to an early
Sun on a summers day
An exuberant display
And an end to
All longing
