Me, Myself, and I

Me, Myself, and I

A Poem by Allen Smuckler
"

Brrrrr, is all I could say....I'm otta here for warmer weather...

"





 













Too damn cold

at the Pawley Resort.

No reason to distort,

gotta be bold

(I said to myself).

 

I needed to be

south of here.

Cracked open a beer,

decided to flee.

(I thought to myself).

 

Left at 12 noon

instead of ten.

Did not know when,

only knew soon

(I assured myself).

 

Deerfield Beach

on the left side coast.

10 p.m. at the most

not otta reach

(I prayed to myself).

 

Roasting and toasting

I lie by the pool.

Mom raised no fool,

wistful and coasting

(I grinned to myself).

South Carolina is just too cold for me in the winter...Florida is the place to be, if you want warmth...so I left for good.
Photo: Litchfield Beach, Pawley Island, SC (January, 2009)...picture tells it all.

I guess it's all about perspectives! I look at that picture and see blue skies and no snow, and think it looks pretty good. LOL! An enjoyable read all the same.
