A Respite

The sun is out, the sky is blue; I’ve done the things I’ve needed to, So I can sit and watch the flow And how the river sparkles so. I can’t stay long, but while I’m here, Before I have to get in gear, I’ll soak some rays, my mind serene, As I enjoy this urban scene. I’m rarely calm, so times like these, With sunshine and a gentle breeze, Provide a respite for my mind, Where I can leave my stress behind.

I like an occasional rest also. Living near a river must be beautiful.
