to the city where it sucks

dear screened in porch diary,

i ain't got one of those, a screened in porch, and i prolly wouldn't want one either. it seems like that would sorta take away from the porch element. it didn't at the farm when i lived out there, but i didn't really consider that much of a porch either, that was more of an un-level back room where the deep freezer was. things were so simple at the farm, but so much more difficult financially. things were certainly tight in the winter, but the freedoms were so plentiful year around. my time of everyday peace and quiet was certainly no preparation for my days to come here in the city. if i could go back there i prolly would, but i wouldn't stay. i'd go back and take in all i've forgotten, make a few more wishes for tomorrow, and maybe catch a glimpse of the sunrise over the freshly harvested field- then i'd come back home again i'd imagine.
