what now……………
a warm winter has passed
a too hot summer is here
green grass a crisp yellow
heat rising off asphalt
a time removed long ago
a young girl tanned brown
playing beneath the sun
beaches of white sand
riding waves to the shore
feeling sand on her wet body
tasting sea salt on her tongue
long hair matted to her head
wind blowing & tossing waves
time stands still forever
light peers in through curtains
drawn tightly close against heat
a life observed in passing
stillness steps forth to greet me
what now………………

I guess I am observing how life can be and is now. One thing is always certain and that is life is always changing. 🙂

Lovely poem Renee.. I think when we have time on our hands, we often look back and then think What Now..
Taking each day as it comes.. and making the most of every moment within them..
