WALKING ON BARN ISLAND

(6/7/16)

Barn Island was a windy place today,

just the thing to blow whatever cares

they had away. Their lives were child's play

along the sunny, breezy paths. The airs

of springtime's lightness seemed all around

them as they walked. The breeze brought happiness

to them as lightly as it shook the brown

reeds along the marsh. There was finesse

in the windy way the air was moving, free

and full of spirit like these two

old partners. There was a feathery

feeling that quietly and gently blew

between them as they walked, these kids

in their 70's, as youthful as their grandkids.
