A Mellow Afternoon Poem by C R Clark
A Mellow Afternoon
A cool Thanksgiving afternoon
Cousins, at grandpa’s, hard at play
Parents, all visiting, on the porch
The sun shone bright, a bluebird day
Covering a gently rising knoll
Tall, latent grass, a chestnut shade
Sheltered there, I lay me down
In heaven’s warmth, to luxuriate
‘Twas here in tranquil solitude
My mind explored illustrious paths
And rode on waves of mellow dreams
At peace in a billowing sea of grass
