"#244565 Will be Released From Prison
Friday-- Puts Things in Proper Order"

I’m having walks in the rains this spring
after the winds of March and the winter snows--
after all these years, I’m having walks this spring.

I’m having solo picnics on grass this summer;
after the winds and snows and walks in the rain
I’m taking a basket down to the lake.

I’m having a woman of my own this fall,
after the wind and snows, rains and walks to the lake--
after all these years, I’m having a woman this fall.

  2. Such flavored hopes tasted one possibility at a time.
