Friday, 8 by Melanie J YarbroughI drive,
ask Shannon to turn on music
I can sing to.
She chooses pop
and I hear her dancing
in the backseat.
The sky opens for two hours
on the roofdeck,
leaving us to walk under rain
without umbrellas
with pink cheeks
and fake tattoos.
I write in my journal
how I like the sea air
in my skirt,
the feeling of my hair on my shoulders. 08/09/2008 Posted on 08/09/2008 Copyright © 2025 Melanie J Yarbrough
