Blackberries growing on a chain link fence
Cool breezes blowing through an open door
Sidewalks are cracking in the midday Sun
Adams Morgan, 1991

Cold pizza waiting in the kitchen fridge
Blue pilly carpet on an endless floor
Warm light is streaming where the children run
Adams Morgan, 1991

Cows ride bicycles across the sky
And Madam's watching us from up on high

Down Kalorama with an ice cream cone
Fine office markers that I shouldn't touch
Dad's new computer looks like so much fun
Adams Morgan, 1991

Schoolyard graffiti of the Scooby gang
Wild secret garden with a chlorine pool
Long rowhouse shadows when the day is done
Adams Morgan, 1991

Long children's faces when the day is done
Adams Morgan, 1991
