We have all had those moments when we need something. A book to read, a kind word or a Joyous smile. Sometimes it is something as simple as a warm spot and a nap. Music: The Old Rambler |
In NeedThe wind is whistling outside The fire crackling inside A growing urge to sit and read Actually it is more of a need For a while I’ve been trying To read a book by Edna O’Brien The words are soothing and easily flow Soon, the words or the fire produce a warm glow “Mother Ireland” is the name of the book Sitting on my shelf it begged a serious look It is full of wisdom and wit Sadly, I can not just sit My eyes are drawn to the dancing flame Then to the rain beyond the window frame With a favored book open in my lap It is a day for a long winter’s nap Philip Copyright 3/18/2011 |
