On Earth

When I lay down.
When I lay down, grass loves me, and flowers
cherish my company-
when I lay down, we embrace,
and cares of the world slide beyond and away.
With my eyes closed.
With my eyes closed, the clouds open up
the sky comes inside-
With my eyes closed, it's easy to see the blue
and the gold; I'm sold on endless azure skies.
When I touch earth.
When I touch earth, it touches back, grassy soft
leafy tickle, a thorny scratch-
When I touch earth, I can count on the feel, know
that it's real; be free in myself eyes closed on my back.

What a picturesque tale for a cold rainy day!
"the clouds open up the sky comes inside" really nails it. Thank you for sharing the ways you enjoy life. It is so inspiring to know that such pleasures lie all around us for the asking.
Frankly, I needed the reminder!

Hello boet
None is so blind as he who does not want to see!
This piece here highlights it very well. We have so much beauty around us if only we want to close our eyes and see. Yes see it the way God wants us to see it. Beautiful write God bless
Greetings

I like the relaxing nature of this write...Pleasant imagery that conjures up peaceful thoughts. I think it would be better without the starting lines of each stanza. Repeated twice is good.

I love nature poetry, your poem brings back memories of one I wrote from the vantage point of a plane a few years back:
"winter winds yet all is calm
from the window of my view
a billowy white cotton sky
obscures my interlude"
Excerpt from 'From the Dead of Winter" By Archie Brown |
