Laying on my swing,
my feet dangling over the edge,
brushing the grass with each gentle pass,
I looked up into the sky,
darkness was settling around me.
The multitude of fences were disappearing,
as if into a mist,
from somewhere,
the smell of popcorn floated by on the breeze.
I chatted on the phone
and thought about what an absolutely lovely evening it was.
Friday
Payday
No rain predicted
for the whole weekend
My girls came out for a little while and joined me.
Even the dog sat with us.
A brief trip indoors to put everyone to bed,
then back out with a blanket,
a cup of coffee.
I fell asleep for just a little while,
waking at my pup's slight whine.
Why was mom,
sleeping outside?
Back,
writing to you,
telling the story,
getting ready to climb into bed.
Planing the day tomorrow,
daydreaming in my head.
It has to be a park day,
a play day.
A picnic,
bring a smile day.
One park,
two..
dare I say
three?
warm
happy
blessed.
May your evening be beautiful.
May tomorrow find you refreshed.
May you always know you are loved.
May you be blessed.
