Under the Dust
We rode through the field
To get to the old barn—
A stack of antique windows
Would soon be ours!
The smile on Pa’s face
Gave us consent to feel free
To take a few pieces of the past
From his tobacco farm
We cautiously climbed over
Unsteady wood—piled high
Evading rusty nails and idle tools
To gather our handsome treasures
A crack of thunder made us rush
To load up the truck
We closed the barn doors and drove off
Leaving behind—
Just another memory
To settle under the dust
