Afternoon Relaxation

Afternoon Relaxation

The afternoon’s sun sinks into the tree lined horizon
I sit on a porch swing 
One leg curled under me 
My other leg dangling

The afternoon’s breeze caresses my face
I gently, rock back and forth 
One foot anchored to the on the porch
My toenails shine strawberry red

The afternoon’s warmth envelopes me
I hold a dish of melting vanilla ice cream
One cherry perched on top
My tongue wishes is it was a strawberry instead
