Play tennis in the backyard
Jump about like your kids
Ride around your bicycle
Showing off with skids
Evening comes
Darkness falls
You put away
Your tennis balls
Bedtime beckoning
As the morning looms
Another day
In afternoons
“Everything that needs to be said has already been said. But, since no one was listening, everything must be said again.” – Andre Gide
