Lazy Day

Sun beating down 
   on the land
let's dance together 
    on the verdant earth
We can catch 
          solar rays
and touch 
          the winds 
blowing over our heads
blowing over our heads

many thanks for the comment on the hurricanes eye Matthew, i was wondering on the seeing sight bit, and whether it was a bit to old to be readily grasped, i had an alternative ready and you have caused me to put it in,all the best and by the way did you get my email on your question to exestential?

It sounds like a beautiful spring day, Matthew! Very nicely described in verse. The Man in the Middle was true -- not fiction. Hope you're enjoying the novel. Love, Carolyn

I love the lightness of this, Matt. Transports the reader to a sunny day in late spring...when the weather is just right. Beautiful lyric. Love, Annalise
