Excerpts From a Teenage Diary

Wind billowing through a rolling cornfield
Far from the city lights
Formations of silver grey clouds 
Billowing through a dark sky
Competing against each other

Rows of tall trees standing to attention
Silhouetted against a low horizon
As wisps of smoke drifts up from a
Bleak ancient farmhouse in the foreground
Surrounded by dilapidated fencing

Daylight now failing as evening’s shadow
Begin to casts its silky smooth cape
Tentatively over a tranquil landscape
We sit in the car at the side of the road

And kiss
