The County Line
White Sunshine,
Red racing dark cars
Yellow fire hydrants
Old dirty money
Baseball cards on the dresser
A ball cap resting on the floor
Bed made by your mother
Each kid still young and beautiful
But you never got back on your bike
You never came back home,
To our warm small town
Where your coffin lays
underground,
just past the county line
This poem is about:
My family
My community
