A rainy day....
A house, glass eyes peer across landscape little changed.
Scent of raindrop soaked garden, flash of peacock turquoise. Jewels in the green.
Solid stone storybook house is watched. Eyes on peacocks, eyes on trees.
(A painting awaits from these images I think? ;-))
And from the earth amid the leaves and damp and smallest of creatures, eyes that look up.
Let me lie on grasses green
On my mother earth I leanLet me lie on grasses green
On my mother earth I lean
Under burning sun
Through my veins she runs
Let me breathe the forest air
It's the life force that we all share
Feel my burning tears
Heal me through as I lie
Here with you
Heal me through
Let me sleep and keep me close
