Until Snow - Dixie

Home was Florida, Texas, and California.
White was sand, sunrise, and stucco walls.
Cold was wind, shadows, and waves.
Mountains were dunes, mesas, and hills.
Trees were palms, yuccas, and eucalyptus.
Pathways were shorelines, river beds, and cliffs.
Thrills were swamps, campouts, and sail boats.
Dreams were warm rain, the open road, and bird cries.

I lived in summer and warmth
Until snow
