22.04.18-115) I look ou the window an’ I’m knowin’

Jim’s got a campfire goin’

So outside I’m bound, us an’ the band gather round

An’ soon we’re talkin’ away,

An’ I’m thinkin’ what better way to start the day

 

116) Me an’ Jim got the portable greenhouse done

Neath the hot Lamesa sun

High in the sky above, a labour of love

So future generations’ll know how to make plants grow

Learnin’ permaculture an’ then some

To pass on to future generations to come

 

117) Mid afternoon an’ I’m headin’ South,

No need to feel down in the mouth

Had a great time, composin’ an’ recitin’ my rhyme

An’ played my part, givin’ my heart

Helpin’ a permaculture project get a start

Now that’s done, to Kerrville I run

Through Big Spring like before, then a shock, the gasoline costs more

Thought, “not very nice” then saw a sign giving a better price

Less to pay for a tank full them I’m away

Not bereft when Ben left

Cos’ hopefully I’ll see him again at the end of this roam

Before I catch my flight back home

Drivin’ along a dead deer at the roadside

Tells me I’m right to drive in broad daylight

Cos’ it’s one less danger to them at night

Makin good time but then something I feared most,

My gps seemed to give up the ghost

But this travelin’ chap had a plan B a Texas map

Read it the night before to learn, where to turn

Right in Eden, on to Junction, then it kicks in again as if by divine unction

Left on I-10 use the cars power, speed limit says 80 miles per hour

Soon I’m where I want to be an’ booked in,

Kerrville, The Lone Star Inn

Room smells fresh an’ clean, away from the road

With no traffic rumble, should be great when into bed I tumble

So tomorrow goes right, I’m lookin’ forward to an early night.
