the bean

Why is it that
a trip to Chicago
isn't complete
without a picture
at the Bean?

This is what im longing for

Another summer day.
A short drive with friends.
A muddy swimming hole.
Some one to splash.
The current of the river bend.
A tall tree with a rope to swing from.
A kiddie pool as a makeshift raft.
Twin brothers to fight with.
Cate and Katie to be ok.
My running buddy by my side.
All these things I miss.
I wonder what the next adventure is.
God ... take me there.
