in the hammock of summer
across the Channel
bees are buzzing...

ancient water springs
  next to the lazing Moccasin
upon the shoreline...

lazing by the shore
whispers flee from ebbing tides
winds howl in silence...

lazing beneath stars
most day's work becomes undone--
a New Year's same wish


( Not for contest)...

lazing beneath
a swaying buddlelia blue
a long tongued moth in my view
suckles its nectar brew-
nearby others hover impromptu...

Lizards are lazing here and there.
Kids enjoy the water sprayer.
	Crows're hopping 'round
	across burning ground.
Please soon end this summer affair!

I'm basking in pure relaxation
As chilled as a sloth on vacation
Some call me a bummer
For spending the summer
Indulging in procrastination.

I stumble and stagger through life's stony streets,
Trying to find my way as I steadily beat my feet.
It's simple to give in while lazing upon life's gurney.
Refusing to give up, I slowly continue on my journey....

Wait until you meet here
She is a society chick
Made big money in the markets
Lazing around these days, doing nothing

I have met these types before
Not anxious to meet this one
Amused though when I realize
She really is a chick...

I like
my bike.

Riding, 
gliding, 

I view
sky blue

and see
grand tree.

Morn yields
corn fields -

Pasture
rapture;

Farm ploughs;
calm cows

lazing . . .
grazing

on grass
gone past.

Slow roam.
Go home....

Boiling, baking and blazing,
               Other synonyms for heat.
My camel is happily dazing,
	He was not a restful seat.
Poolside I’ll later be lazing,
	Resting my sunburnt feet.
Air conditioning is amazing,
               Ice cream is a lovely treat....

JANUARY in slence ,hides its cry
 APRIL in splendour,catches the eye
 JULY lazing,as the world goes by
 OCTOBER disrobes,as fall leaves die
 
 inspired by E Pauline Johnson's phrase August,laughing 
across the sky in her SONG MY PADDLE SINGS

I love to spend my summer days lazing
To get away from city life's crazing
Gotta get away
And have time to play
Summer nights with loved ones spent star gazing

It's important to spend some time lazing
Mother nature your gratefully praising
Sane you'll get to stay
A few days away
The benefits from it are amazing

He
Sits
Waiting
Patiently
On the white heather
With green and gold enamelled head.

A
Late
Summer
Visitor
Lazing in the sun :
A dragonfly with lace-like wings.

Like
A
Fossil,
Motionless,
From prehistory,
An insect frozen in amber.

As
A
Larva
He’s waited
Five years water-bound,
Finally free, he flies away....

Lazing in spring's warm bliss
               lure butterflies with scents
     Lustrous pearly dewdrops
                  leave velvety footprints
     Landscape spangled with stars
             Lissome leaves in white hues
     Lie on me when I die...

Dad said keep rolling you pick up no dust

Mum said you can my son, here are means

Big bro said chase the stars, failure will give you the moon

Big bro said stop lazing and wasting, get strapped for the future

Lil sis said I believe in you  keep pushing

And to God I said thanks for Your grace, I won't fail you none.

Where the black berates the whites
and barricades are crossed
that colour without
when rain gathers for release
like a slightly grubby fleece
that squelchy grey that matters
the outsider that pines for other hues
the memory it confused
Shadow contorts its form
intense in its opinion
bland has joined the band
The future aint bright
its lazing in the shades...

I am lazing about at the base of this tree
Not caring what anyone says to or about me.
It’s a summers’ day and my coat is warm.
I watch bees buzz past in a tight knit swarm.

Others are running, dancing and spinning.
I am enjoying my life, truly languishing and winning.
I am a sloth, with a life full of rest and relaxation.
So glad I do not have any other goal or station....

I recite and read aloud,
wander, lonely as a cloud,
then emulate and create
as memory stimulates;
Swim against poetry's tide
therein,an enigma hide,
perhaps,a step too far,with
Tennyson,crossing the bar;
I dream on Will's sonnet verse,
figuratively,sweet and terse,
lazing life away,with songs
compared to a summer's day.

To conjure an opening line
ever,remembered,as mine....

What has to be done must be done
Lazing around just will not pay
Grab hold of yourself and move on
Do what you have to do today

Despite the mood you may be in
Know time and tide wait for no one
Get busy, start the ball rolling
If not, you will be overrun

Hold on and sustain the effort
Though you may not feel to do so
Stand firmly for no matter what
Be assured success will follow...
