A Drowsy Afternoon

Airy kisses brush my face,

Breezy fingers ruffling my hair,

The sweetness of fragrant flowers

Fills the sleepy afternoon air.

Wispy cottoned clouds floating

Across the drowsy sunlit sky,

Whispers of softly rustling leaves

Branches swaying closely by.

Cool fresh grass beneath my back,

No weary noises that I can hear,

I can lay me down to sleep

With birds chirping somewhere near.
