A Missouri Drive

On a meandering, weaving ribbon of road-
through velvet green hills,
past sparkling shimmers of creeks 
and gems of pools- hushed and quiet-
fireflies beginning the dance of the gloaming
against a setting of purple and pink laced sky-
affable green sentries of ash, birch, poplar and oak
wave us goodnight, bobbing in the breeze-
as we reach home a soft light is on
welcoming us inward.
