Don'T Quit Your Daydream

I left it there Tucked into a warm corner Beneath the ancient Elm. I return frequently To visit this moment Bathe in its peace. Listen for the rustle Of leaves, the chatter Of flippant squirrels. Sink into the warmth Of moistly scented soil And crusted tree bark. I left it there That dream That day. I return Longing to continue That days dream. ©11/29/2022
