Harvest Moon

Pillow Talk

Harvest Moon

Family gathering
Annisquam
Living room filled
With Flynns
Mom facing me
Opposite ends
Barked a command
Charles stand up
Pull down your pants
Phobia about wrinkles|
In the knees
With a shrug
Dutiful son
I obeyed
Standing turned
Flashed a moon
Everyone gasped
Aunt Rita convulsed
With laughter
Cousins stunned
As they recalled
Recently during
Session of swapping tales
That Irish gift of gab
One of many
Hilarious stories
Topped by Kevin’s
Call to his brother Bud
On the road
Florida to East Gloucester
I almost just killed dad
Knowing Judge Flynn
Who could be harsh
We laughed but
Nobody was surprised
