Luyện nghe bài hát Ruby '81

July 4th 1981,candles of a ilk
Unloaded from a truck
the home her folks had built
Patio was and extended fam in folding chairs
Safely arced around the yard to focus on the flares
Couple cousins, uncles, aunts, mostly grown-ups, couple
Baby only two
too close to the jumping jacks
Mommy scoops her to the
Buckles up the seat
Rolls her to the storm
Let her long for all the
Telephone Mom
wriggles out her strap
Fingers the plexi-glass
She's off into the sour
Past the pyrotechnics undetected and
Woke the beagle skipping toward the kidney swimming pool
Off the yawning blue
The would mum the rocket-ships
Ruby's lungs were filling by the time her kin were
sprung and sprinted down
All arrive but
The beast she had earlier stirred had been alert since up
Canine let his fly
Water top grow
Howling guests the cloven hoofs had come to do-si-do
and congested deck
Part to let the see
Soggy beagle dragging Ruby in his yellow teeth
Laid the tiny in the sun before her Fathers feet
When she the liquid through her bluish lips he dropped his knee
the air to reconvene
Towel his Ruby off
EMT confirm the
say
"Good dog!"
