Just sitting on a porch Sitting on a porch Somewhere along the east coast Of East Cup Cake, U S A I relax with my eyes close Still alert of my surroundings Rocking on a chair Soaking What, naturally comes my way But inspiration hasn’t In the past few days. I can hear children Stepping off a school bus Playing and singing kids songs Skipping and hopping Out of my sight Along Their way home. The warm sun Is soothing my face Ever so lovingly In between burst Of mountain chill winds Reminding me old man winter Is approaching rapidly. The days are shorter The shadows That follow me around Are getting longer On the ground. Dry leafs of autumn Swirl gracefully in the wind Like a mini vortex In the clear sky was a promise Of a bright beautiful Full moon Nature feeding me inspiration As a nursing mother Breast feeds her child...

I can feel the breeze and warmth of your beautiful words. To relax and just take in all the sights and not have anywhere to go, how lovely. I wish I could be right there with you, rocking to the melody of our heartbeats..
Peace, love, and light,

Hello William,

This is beautiful, like the great American classic poetry of Frost, picturesque and soothing, a "rocking chair" clamness that lulls us to inspiration.

Pretty picture you painted here. Isn't it a little cold to hang out on the porch, though?
Love,
