Inclined to Believe

The porch swing sways
carrying two worn souls
looking back
on two lovers
living in the moment
who became two expectant
parents planning their future

More than particles drifting
through space and time
The porch swing sways
baby blue paint cracking
on weathered wood
suspended by chains
crackling with rust
The porch swing sways
the gentle rock
back and forth
back and forth
the rhythmic pattern
of one life together
one continuous sway
