Afternoon Delight

Fill up the tin on the back porch swing with rainwater lilies and daisies Set out the blanket out past the thicket grasshopper's tuning up lazy Baskets of raspberries staining containers ready to swim in champagne Sun about bursting so swollen with pride Clouds about doing the same Pine needles sweeten the taste buds for eating Hummingbird shadows like bees Music and artistry of our Creator bringing us down to our knees.
