I lie down
on the lake …
Hot languid light:
Liquid green
at my back, and
a face full of sky — cielo.
See that blue, though —
a broken-open husk
of heaven.
No place to be.
Nothing to say.
Two palmfuls of cloud…
Let’s just lie here
and be still. ❤

Where is this beautiful place? I’m smitten. And an equally beautiful accompaniment of words. It’s such a soothing, calming post. I so want to be there now. :’)

Isn’t it lovely? It’s my husband’s family home, on Potomac Creek in northern Virginia. Quite the place, for sure… Perfect for summer lounging.
So happy to hear you enjoyed!! 🙂

I wish I could be here more often … But we’ll be visiting T’s family over the Fourth of July, so I’ll be soaking up that beauty soon! 🙂

Aah. That’s wonderful. I do hope we’ll get to read about it on your blog which as always brings me closer to nature somehow. Enjoy your time basking in the natural surroundings. ^-^

Floating… lying… being still. It speaks to something deep inside me, and yet it is SO hard for me to tolerate! Thank you for this beautiful poem to reflect on tonight as I attempt to find a little stillness and quiet my racing heart and mind.

Beautiful! It gave me goosebumps and made me long for Lake Champlain where we hope to have a home some day.
