Monday Poetry


Pleasant Day


Breeze through my window
Scents of salt and water ride on air
The fresh breath dries sticky skin
As cotton puffs loaded with tears race across the sky
Yellow streams pierce through gray
Birds fly on wishes way up high
Beautiful, a day to enjoy

Oh, I like this image:
As cotton puffs loaded with tears race across the sky

(Then I get the picture of the sky "weeping" when it rains)

Thanks

Anne, that's awesome. I can feel this; I'm there.

So long as I don't go outside, into the stew we've got today. Yick.

I think I'll hang out in your world today, instead.

Usually by this time of year it's unbearably sticky and humid, but for some reason (and I know I'm going to jinx it) it's been hot, but not so much on the humidity this year.
