Kara chases her keys
to the riverside
where they tremble,
hide in a stump and
hiss like snakes.
She tricks them with
a clump of moss
irresistibly soft and
green; the keys
rush out to feed
... captured!
She rushes home,
strokes her keys
unlocks the trees
savors the breeze
pauses to please
the birds and the bees ...
She dips her delicate nose in
the so-sweet nectar of
Home, Sweet Home.
