sun ripe

ripen in the sunshine

it brings a sweetness

that shade

could never give

let the rays penetrate

your thin skin

and soak in goodness

when I then

relish in your fruit

the juice will

drip from my lips

and I will smile

tasting that warmth

of summer days

fell in

don’t dig too deep

they told her

or you could fall in

she did not listen

her nails filled with dirt

her arms tired from the work

she could hear it calling

love

and she wasn’t going anywhere

without it

so she dug

and they were right

she fell in

tranquility

Wordsworth said we should

“recollect in tranquility”

for the words to flow forth

from heart to pen

and paper reads what she felt

with song interwove in her emote

of her world eye view

only peering through her microscopic

lens of she and you and me

found in tranquility
