Perfect Day
It was a Sunday
Just like any other Sunday
The summer glow was exquisite
Perfect for a ride in the country
As the sun drenched
Honey all over God’s creation
I was a passenger in the back seat
And everyone was quiet
Probably like me in awe
I soaked in the scenery
Like so many other times
It didn’t really seem
Any different that day
Till out of nowhere
I was shocked to realize
It had been a while that
My mind had been elsewhere
Outside my window
Hovering over those hills
In the form of a big hand
That supersize hand was me
Caressing the long tall grasses
I thought I snapped out of it
But was so amazed
I was able to ease right back
Without skipping a beat
Into my out of body experience
So for miles and miles
I was able to caress those rolling hills
And their tall blades of warm grasses
Ever so grateful for God’s creation
