Lilac Martinis
The porch flits with fairy lights
winding in and around yard sale treasures
the ancient medical cart offers vodka bottles,
the silver shaker and one half-mooned lemon
angling up toward the sky
here, we gather for summer,
deep V glasses harboring May’s harvest
sugar simmered petals
blossoming on our tongues
the perfect carpet for laughter
and friendship’s
long flowered call
