POETRY

Energizing Sunlight Replacing the Computer Screen

free verse poetry

To take a needed break, Taught posture and hours here In front of the computer screen, Sore and watery eyes Neck and shoulders ache.

Down to the beach, I sit in hot sunshine. Waves breaking loudly upon the sand Do not disturb a weary sleep, Welcome arms of lucid dreams Pull me from my chair.

Erratic images, Surf walk and climbing rocks, Eating food, I am typing again, New ideas, I must grasp them tight For when I come to again.

The noise of children playing Brings me back round, Ideas for writing dissipating Like cerebral spinal fluid Slipping through my central brain canal, Slightly confused Waking visions now take over.

To stand in the sunshine, To admire the colours, Varying degrees of Blue Bonded with white, Drifting in my surround, Absorbing the flow of energy The sun bestows upon me.

Time to write and celebrate My moments in the sun.

Thank you for reading. J.
