My heart spans the miles tonight
heat rises off the pavement
drinking in the humidity
I find myself missing
every hot Georgia day...
The crickets and locust join
in the chorus
singing songs of heat and long summer nights
the farm still overlooking the ponds and the trees
knowing Grandpa's farm breakfast lay in wait
Or the stars twinkling
pulling me towards
a summer love spent
kissing on my front porch
and watching the stars twinkle
Or maybe July nights spent
singing and laughing and falling in love
with each new friend
But the truth and time find me
in the space between
two fans, my heart, and you
The future is still a MadLib
I see you smiling as we begin
to fill in the blanks
