As I lay down under a tree,
dry straw and flowers clung to my back
seeking water.

Lazily I studied cloud formations
and saw Europe, Asia and America
linking fluffy arms walking across the sky.

Somewhere in the bushes,
nearby, a snake hissed startled a rabbit,
which fled pursued by my dog.

Ants began building homes in my ears,
nature was taking me for granted.
Got up, as did my silhouette,
flowers groaned and straw crinkled
when stretching themselves back into shape.

In the afternoon breeze
the good smell of warm wool
as a flock of sheep came
grazing towards me
