This day

Postby drllrd74 » Tue Aug 25, 2015 9:27 pm

On a day, such as today,
when the hawks ride on the air;
they're catching drafts, they're acrobats,
somersaulting without care.

In the distance, purple curtains,
announce the falling rain;
and this world is much too beautiful,
to degrade or to disdain.

On a day, such as today,
there's a quickness in the walk;
like spring-time in the month of May,
we have no need of talk.

The weather's so enjoyable,
I'm in my daydream mode;
atop a mesa, on a hike,
no signs of any road.

On a day, such as today,
it's so fine to be alive;
not caring where I'm going,
or if I do arrive!

I love the beautiful imagery you have portrayed for us David, especially the second stanza.."Purple curtains"..wow , and yes that is just how the sky is before the rain.
At one with yourself in a happy mindset...just perfect :)
