I'm laying here. <br />In the lush, green grass. <br />I am at peace, there is nothing to fear. <br />I am doing nothing, but sitting on my butt. <br /> <br />A light wind. <br />Brushes against my face. <br />It's whispering to me. <br />Saying words that I can't hear. <br /> <br />A twig snaps. <br />Just behind my head. <br />What would want to disturb me? <br />Lying here, peaceful and at balance? <br /> <br />A purring sound. <br />Like a buzzing and humming bee. <br />It's just my cat. <br />Climbing to lie on top of me.<br /><br />Valerie Anderson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-summer-afternoon-2/
