She lays on the soft warm grass
closing her eyes
her tired body relaxes into the earth
The inviting sun hugs her with his warmth
It has been three seasons too long
since she's felt his embrace
She can hear the summer wind
as it lazily sweeps through the trees
Stopping to spin, twirl, and dance with the leaves
The tall cottonwoods peek down at her
their branches painting self portraits
on her closed eyes
and the soft green canvas beneath her
As the earth spins
she feels gravity holding her
Knowing he wont let her fall
She lays on the soft warm grass
Opening her eyes
her body relaxed
She looks out into the heavens
A beautiful blue ocean below
