Poem -
Alone Under the Sun
The dry grass crinkled under my body as I lay myself down to stare into the warmth of the sun.Ā
I stay there, in a peaceful state, thinking to myself.Ā The sunās rays penetrate deep into my soul, cleansing it of misery. The more I stare, the more I am at ease.Ā
Yet I feel a crack in my mind where my knowledge seeps out; gone without a logical trace. All I have learned must be unwound from the confines of my brain.
A rustle in the grass chills my skin as the wind dances across it. As the sun fades, I am brought back to reality where nothing is fair.Ā

Tracey, another poignant and thoughtful write! It really resonates with me, that elusive feeling that sneaks up, feeling content and whole, but it makes a quick exit, as your poem concludes, brought back downto reality with the jarring unfairness of life at times.
Henry, This, as I stated above(but to the wrong writer..aaargh!!!) is one of those poems that, if you have been there, walking a similar emotional or situational path, resonates deeply. I am such a Colossal idiot for not paying better attention to the author. I am truly sorry that IĀ didn't address my comment to you(Tracey graciously sent me a heads up message ;-)
no worries I'm glad you all enjoyed it thanx
