The breeze in subtle movement
lifts the petals from a rose
and it flutters to the ground
without a sound, i watch with
eyes half closed,from my garden
chair,taking pleasure in the scented
air, while thoughts of beauty play
poetically in my mind, hoping to
find words to become a poem...
an unusually warm day makes the
lazy senses go astray,from one
topic to another, and sleep gently
flirts with me, makes closing my eyes
a priority,and i see no reason why i
shouldn't succumb to dreamland...
Oh, I know the feeling...I sit and think, trying to feed on anything that will present itself, and I could sleep so soundly instead...but, I re-open my eyes, fighting the inevitable, still searching for that first word... that one thought that will take me off in another dreamland I'd better recall! LOL!
Such a poem!
Loved it!
Love and Peace~

Lovely! Yah, I agree, it feels like spring down here too. It was 85 degrees in the mountains last weekend. This could have been written by the Buddha; it's so peaceful and introspective.
This is a soft and dreamy poem Eileen, the beauty you paint with your talented pen makes me want to nap in a garden when and if Spring ever arrives in the mid west...
peace and love, Carole~
Oh ET! a rocking chair by the shadow among all those flowers in a summerday contemplating a spider at work making its net...an a cooler full of Coors of course!
there certainly can be no greater pleasure than leisure time spent in the garden -- flowers to mesmerize and warm sun to call the sandman close -- you may then flirt with both and choose the one that best suits the moment and your fancy -- Eileen, just an absolutely soothing aura you established with your poem and the great photograph that accompanies it -- bring forth the light of love and great joy will bring you peace -- JMW
Oh I'm gonna take a nap this poem is healing, relaxing and soooooooooo beautiful Eileen. The most peace write I've ever heard. Its not going in my library alone its also going on my bed stand. God bless you my dear friend for the peace you gave me today. Love and hugs, Bonnei

nothing like it...to 'succumb to dreamland...'
Write down any words you find

They'll have vanished come wake up time!
I loved this.

My garden chair is a place I always like to be, and I really like your poem, Tiger Lily.
So nice to sit in a garden and drift asleep as the sun warms us.
