What A Rush

The sun bright and beautiful

The sky a wonderful, metallic, light blue

Clouds puffy and white

Placed in the air with care

There is never enough

Look a few more

Off in a far away corner

Seeing the beauty behind every tree

Home sweet home

Is the place I love to be

As the birds are chirping constantly

Because they have so much to say

I walk and listen

Taking in every sight and sound

My mind is moved in a direction of complete peace

My body slightly moving swaying side to side

If I was a bird I would be gliding on the gentle wind current

Not a whim or a notion

Can anyone tell me

Which way to the ocean ?

Gypsy Rose Lee Yesterday it rained all day. When the weather is good I couldn't be happier. Even when it rains it is so special in it's own way. I hope your weather changes for the better. I remember some really hot summers where I wish it would rain. Thank you for reading and sharing.

Peggy Woods Wouldn't it be great to float on a cloud. Seeing everyone below moving about their business. Seeing all the beauty that so many people miss. Thank you for reading and sharing. Computer trouble kept me away for a few days. Things have a way of working out. We just have to keep trying until we see the results we like.Have an incredible afternoon.

Lucky you with such wonderful weather. Our days have turned cool again and it is raining heavily.

Dora There is so much to appreciate every day. I get so thrilled with all the joys and possibilities. Time keeps ticking no matter what we accomplish or never finish. When I look and see nature around me everything looks perfect nothing out of place or wrong. When I enter my real life experiences this is where it gets tricky. Things I thought would go well don't. I struggle with little issues other people aren't interested in.Why certain things work and others don't. Thank you for reading and sharing.

Bill Holland What an incredibly nice thing to say. Poetry is a wonderful way to open the doors to so many directions. I wedged my door open with an old shoe so that door stays open all the time. Thank you for your comments. I am trying to learn how to save my comments without printing each one out. People say just copy and paste. The simplest computer steps are an every day thing to most people. To me it is a series of magic tricks that everyone keeps it a secret. They say it works for me I don't know why it's not working and then they leave me hanging. As if I am going to magically figure it out. The reason why I came to you is because I was having trouble. Thank you for your support. Have a great night.

Ann Carr I absolutely love days where we are one with nature. If I could paint a picture in my mind it would be simply when your doing anything and having a good time. I haven't solved my printer problem my wife took a picture of them with her phone. I hear people send them to their email I am not sure how to do that yet.

I was imagining those clouds in the bright blue sky with birds soaring and singing. Lovely thoughts!

"I walk and listen Taking in every sight and sound." Life is so much more beautiful when we comply with this message. Thanks!

Follow the breeze to some beautiful poetry!

Good idea to put all good comments in a folder - no harm in giving oneself a pick-me-up when needed. I admit I too have kept a few of the most complimentary comments I've received!

Ann Carr I feel I don't do enough with nature. It is almost as if nature is like fantasy land. We can go there any time but so many times we don't. Busy with earning a living and a list of things to do that is longer than Santa's good list of kids in the world. I like to copy my comments.I am having trouble with my printer it won't recognize my laptop. So as soon as I fix the problem I will o.k. your comments. I put all my comments in a folder and when I feel blue I pull out the folder as a pick me up tool. Thank you so much for all your comments. The wind is still blowing here bringing a touch of cool air across my chest and feet. It feels so great. It is so refreshing and at the same time tickling.

A whimsical poem which totally absorbed me - I was there walking through the countryside. It is so relaxing and mind-blowing to take a peaceful stroll in nature, especially in good weather.

Lovely piece!
