Undressed

a pitcher of sunshine
pours through undressed
window glass
a pure liquid gold
to pool on white sheets
crumpled in disarray
drenching exposed toes
kissing ankles
to settle on veiled thighs
how warm starts my day

Thought for a moment you were going erotic on us, Chris. But you've simply described the AM scene in my bedroom, especially the sheets in disarray. I mean extreme disarray.

[Chris Shaw]

The sunshine can really gild the disarray. Thanks for the visit and the smile John.

Hopefully Chris, this is a precursor to spring whivh im told is about to start any time soon.
Its a toss up really between believing that and depending on your news of choice, snowmageddon coming in the form of the beast from the east volume 2.
I know which one we'd all prefer though! 😀
Liquid gold sunshine or a long trudge through the white stuff, while wishing our parents were from barbados! Hmm, touch choice! 😁

[Chris Shaw]

Hopefully spring is on the way Lorry. We have sunshine, but the temperatures are very cool. Hoping snowmeggedon is over and out. Today I am going to enjoy blue sky. Enjoy your day.
