Photoverio © (#51): The Year Was Naught Six

#52 is  here.



The year was Naught Six
I was westward-bound
returning to my next
California hometown

Two years north
of being fifty-five
it was on to  Long Beach:
a math career to revive

There was a road in Texas
named for  Andy Devine

I raised  my Kodak
to the sky with
its cloud line 

At fifty-seven,
a slice of heaven...

I couldn't help but notice the profile of  Kurt Vonnegut  in that sky,
below which was a piece of the fabled  Route 66.
