The Kingdom
The crickets chirping,
The cool breeze blowing,
The twinkling stars,
The comfortable silence.
Night’s every sound,
Is no longer muffled.
Civilization disappears,
Nature’s realm remains.



I wrote this one in Chester, Ill.  I was outside on a porch swing, and this place I was at was right along the Mississippi River, I sat down and wrote. God I miss the good ol days at the Hospitality House.
