Radiance

I sit in my yard with a cup of steamed coffee  
and watch a mother bird feed her little baby  
The fence does not impede my curious  eye 
nor the strapping beans that are taller then I 

My dog is lazily wagging his tail to and fro 
the sun is playing hide and seek with a go 
Life is good in Postal County, all is just fine 
and the sky is the color of white April wine 

I sit in my lawn chair as I wander and stare 
at the shape of the clouds so puffy and fair
If truth be told I wouldn't trade this time 
for all the tea in China  cuz , it's mine...
