THE BOYS FROM BACK HOME
The accent is unmistakable
Just something special
Oh there are places we know in common INNOCENCE Innocence sleeps quietly by the breast of his mother, beauty heartwarmingly rocked, gently with so much love and care. Rock Rocking Rocked dreamily... My thoughts wandered, could he ever become the complainer, the fussy one, the one who would refuse to partake except maybe grudgingly, like others here? Rock Rocking Earthquake... Could he become the abuser the one who drinks and drives or beats his wife senseless, like others who’d been here. NO! Sweetness could never grow into that. Rock Rocking Tremor... Nightmares could never wake him into a life so cold, so hard as rocky cliffs driven over fast by cars whose drivers "bought it," after they’d been here. Rock Rocking Gently... The sea engulfs the tears never to be shown through smiles saved only for the youngest of babes so tiny the hands, weaving stories, dreams. Float Floating held by angel's feathers, wings... Baby is safe and sound carried to his own life by such a healthy head of hair the strength of a nation in that, just like his dad’s. Rock Rocking Rock~a~bye baby to the land of rhymes and song where one day music will be yours without any whine, nor clatter just pure happy harmony. To: LLilianna and Brandon [and Papa Filipe y Abuelita]. PILES OF PILLOWSShe wants 'em all, mountains of 'em rolling tootsies and candy wrappered gum drop shaped ones, soft, sensual, sexy one for each part of the body, just to rest upon. She wants 'em all over, in the chairs under and on top of one another, fringy silky, satiny, woven, colors more than the rainbow on the floor even, but don't you step on one! She wants 'em all for you and for herself to bounce upon like little children, free and happy to toss, feathers flying up and all over the place um... maybe not, unless you clean it all up!
