A Breath of Air
Golden summer days, a walk through the dreamy Norfolk Broads. A perfect place to sit and reflect, and maybe close your eyes and dream.
A breath of air hardly there, passed me by
beneath a sun-bleached sky. Seeking shade,
a tree bade me welcome. Feeling weary,
I settled there.
I fell into a languid slumber, dreaming of lands
yonder, with snow swirling all around, drifting
on a sun-parched ground.
The lightest touch, gently teasing, drew me
from slumbering rest. Eyes bleary, I saw snow
falling - had my dreams manifest?
I cupped a flake, now awake, clearly there
before my eyes, fluffy seed heads all about
me dancing on a breath of air. A breath of
air that was hardly there.
