My Backyard

The wind among the trees
The sun behind a cloud
A peaceful day in my back yard
Is where my soul is found

It may not be too large
For fences it enclose
But my whole world waits there for me
And all my dreams there flow.

Thanks Chris, I write better when it's warm enough to sit outside
