I Escaped Outside For Peace

I escaped outside for peace 
Among the flowers and the grasses
And breathed – and layed my burden down
On my corrective glasses

My husband has laid his tractor tire down on his missing glasses a time or two after he had pulled them off put them in his pocket and they fall out upon the ground. I got a chuckle at this one. Sara

Yes, this is based on a (I'm afraid not uncommon) true tale. Thanks for reading and writing back, Sara
