NIGHTSHIFT

Quiet reflection on long drive home
Anticipation of sleep till noon
Waggy tails as door unlocks
My sanctuary
My golden plot...

Through the gate where ponies wait
Crisp early morning air elates

Carrots all round
Balls are thrown
So in love
With home...

With home...

Gaze around at greenest hills
​​​​​​At dawning sky a heartbeat thrills
Feel a breeze upon warm skin
As gentle daffodils all grin...

And primrose raise
Their sleepy heads
And i

Renewed...
And i
To bed...

I'm home
I'm home
Im home

My soul is home....

Dogs yes and cats...ponies do not belong to me but are my friends and visit a couple of times a day for hugs...and always in the early morning when I get home. They roam the field adjacent to my garden so they are my very dear friends. Yes, a tiny tiny piece of heaven...I am truly blessed at this stage in my life  BM...thankyou...stay safe ?

Dear MARION!!
You have truly painted a little piece of paradise quite vividly here..... allowing the minds-eye of the reader to fill in the imagery that you so beautifully suggest with such lovely phrasing as ~

                                ~ "Through the gate where ponies wait
                                    Crisp early morning air elates
                                    Carrots all round
                                    Balls are thrown
                                    So in love
                                    With home...
                                    With home....
