I swear when that big beautiful sun came out…
I simply swooned!
Ohh, I just stared at it, with my eyes wide open…
like I was lookin’ at some ol’ ghost of a Saturday night seashore memory
I shrugged off my sweater,
tilted my head and whispered to the sky…
Are you for real?
And will you stay for a while and sit by my side?”
Peace ~ Rene

I like those memories, and the moon is what often makes me whisper to the sky. 🙂
the moon would have made much more sense in this passage…but it was the sun ( and a lack thereof) that inspired this. One morning I watched the sun burn through the overcast…it looked almost ghostly, It was so perfect, clear and circular. I could view it without having to look away…but it was just for a moment.
Inspiration is one of the greatest gifts ever ~ nicely done!
heres to hoping spring sticks around a while…beautifully written…

This is incredible!! I love it! With such brevity and extraordinarily tight writing, you draw me into her world entirely! More, please! ~Janine XO
Thanks for the bit of sunshine on a rainy day 🙂 Amazing what we find we have when we don't think we have much. And to think we're taught NOT to look at the sun… shame!
Short and sweet indeed. Adorable.
