Jet Plane

A jet plane groans
as it climbs
above the tree line,
leaving
the nearby runway.

Pulled weeds and hoe
stay clutched in lined hands,
while my brimmed hat
needs a push-back to see
the air-filled commotion.

A south bound plane-
sleek, clean, and modern,
mimics the sun, pulling
vacationing passengers.

Its morning take-off unveils
 a well-timed escape from
the drudgery of chores
one outdoor workaholic

dutifully holds
in his lined hands-
in his contented heart.
