Caught Afoul I feel afoul, caught in let In shadowed mist mosquito net One I can’t dismiss with ease One that weighs you down in tease It forms a veil upon the sun The weight of dew is still undone And shadows lay in heavy stay That stops the making of the day And I am cold the lack of light To bake my bones to make them right To focus on the mornings awe To let the light within the door For I must lift my head like grass I cannot breathe when shadows pass I am a creature of the sun Without it, I am undone I’ll wait for it as best I can For I am but a simple man |

"I am a creature of the sun Without it, I am undone" Me too dear Sy...me too! Good morning and hope yours is as sunny as the one up here in Ontario. It's a glorious spring day.. one to smile about. ~Morning smiles, hugs & tea, Nancy~ For it was not into my ear you whispered |

Sy I am a creature of the sun too...and without it sometimes it is difficult to raise the morning. It is bright here...I'll send you some by dove. |
