Breathing


I lay on the raven colored ground, hot with sun The ebony white chalk circling my body round Staring up into the robin blue sky I close my eyes Pensively thinking of our ultimate demise Hands still--heart beating Reflecting on the meaning Why here? Why now? To live one’s life I wonder how Breathing in--up and down Life keeps moving all around
