about

Words and music by Paul Kotheimer. Written June 16-17, 2020.

lyrics

the fading light.
the golden hour.
the cusp of night.
the sycamore in flower.

out on the deck.
half-empty wine.
those lightning bugs
still flicker and shine
—like when i was nine.

don’t ask me why
they don’t disappear.
just a few more long sweet sunsets
& then summer’s here.

turn out the lights.
the midnight hour.
can’t get to sleep—
the sycamore’s in flower.
