My Ease

My favourite place A small narrow space Where no distractions are found Beside poppies red A tumble down shed And clover thick on the ground I relax at ease With a gentle breeze cooling the afternoon air A glass of cold wine from a cellar fine A book, and a cushioned chair What more could one need A story to read Let the mind wander and roam I will while away That part of the day Then welcome my family home

An awesome poem beautiful, tranquil and serene. What a good way to kill time and then enjoy the bliss of life in the company of the loved ones returning home. Not everyone is as lucky as you. Some have no one returning home -Mohammad
