April in the Pine Belt - Poem

April in the Pine Belt

April 29, 2008

Nate Bender

It’s late April in the Pine Belt;

Immersed in its verdant landscape all around,

Temperatures moderate, humidity low,

Breezes gentle and oh-so soft,

Sweet peas, kale, and collards have ended their run.

Sitting beside our pool, sipping champagne – part of dietary regime, no less!

My Babe near by, so vital and hearty,

My soul weeps with peaceful joy,

Permeated with feelings so blessed and divine.
