Idle

 

The blue sky is my ceiling 
The fluffy clouds my pillow
And here I lounge in dreamy bliss
Beneath a weeping willow 

 

The sunlight catching idle thoughts
To turn them into rays
And scatter them
Like sunny seeds
To brighten darker days

Not sure about versatility J.C. I just write any old stuff that comes into my head 😄. Probably influenced by what I'm listening to or watching! But thanks.
And for the additional likes! 🌈

A world away from your darker stuff, Stephen. Versatile or what?

Thank you Julie & Stephen. It was actually an oak...but it doesn't rhyme with pillow 😄.
And thanks for the likes Tommy, Tom, Mike & Clare 🌷🌷
