Dancing Shadows Caress My Mind
Laying on the couch in a wonderland of thoughts. Watching the trees dance so gracefully out the window, creating shadows that appear to be that of dancing lovers. The sun beats down on my feet as it blazes through the window pane draping me in a comfortable heat. The ceiling fan on full blast, causing the small transparent hairs to swirl from my bangs into my eyes and back again to my forehead. It feels like a dream world.
My mind never stops racing, one subject to another, to another and on it goes. My body feels weak and carefree to any option of standing up to do any number of the things my mind suggests. I close my eyes, to rest my mind and see nothing but flickering lights behind my eye lids, again with the dancing lovers, the trees swaying as if listening to a melody only they can hear. So much to do, i think to myself as my eyes slowly drift closed again, and my body feels heavy as if sinking into the cushons little by litte. The fan above seems to be going faster and faster, to the point I can no longer focus on one blade at a time but one continous white blur and my eyes close finally.
Wishing for rest, undeniably exhausted but for what reason? Cooking brings a smile to my face, my heart and my stomach, yet today the sheer thought of it makes me more tiered, and less interested. I need a hammock. the voice in my heart seemed to muster with all the energy it had to give. I want to lay outside in the sun, naked, in a hammock and rest for the remainder of the suns hours. I want to fall asleep in mid air, watching quietly as the leaves caress one another, whispering and swaying as if the most magical of moments were taking place right here, behind my eyelids.
I think I shall get dressed... dig out a credit card and purchase a hammock today. I think it would be a wise investment. At least a nice long sun chair to hold me up from the baking of the wood surrounding my house holding me up.
My eyes are closed again, images of stores in the area that would have these items for me, ready to go, no assembly required. I dont think i have the energy. The one chair i would love to see put in around here......... Star Bucks.
have a peaceful day my friends. Cheers!
