Born just for summer Off my leash wild and free Chasing splashing frogs Leaping in the dimming light Lord, turn the porch light on #poetry #tanka

A summer's day dream, Watching fireflies descend— Dark clouds swell with heat. Loud, heavy rains - drumming call, Madness pounding at my door. #poetry #Tanka

Every November, we take time to recognize those who’ve served — and this year, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Foundation is stepping up in a big way. They’re donating to nonprofits that help veterans, and I’m proud to say my pick is @warfighterscuba — an organization doing incredible work helping combat-wounded veterans heal through scuba diving and ocean therapy. 🌊 If you’ve ever seen how powerful that experience is… you know it’s more than just diving — it’s freedom, it’s peace, it’s purpose. You can donate directly to Warfighter Scuba or share this post to help spread the word this during the month of November. 🇺🇸 @crackerbarrel @warfighterscuba
