What can I add, that all have done so well, on this wonderful poem depicting a rural town in almost any Southern State where you can hear the blues sung most any night.

When the summer's haze drifts into the evening and the vapors from heat wave over the streetlamp...when far off in some alley a saxophone drones out the blues...this poem plays out it's message.
Awesome Linda.

Linda
A real bluesy and moody piece that you can dwell on...
I can imagine rocking on a Georgian porch on a hot summer's night watching the fireflies dance, hearing the cacophony of cricket song, with the strains of Ray Charles singing " Georgia on my Mind "...
Way Cool
