A Summer afternoon
I stare up through the wagon wheel spoke branches of a pine
that grows up seemingly into the sky itself
Sunshine filters down upon my head like a libation of golden honey
poured down by some benevolent God
Bare arms and legs hold the imprint of the dry and crunchy grass
which struggles to maintain a hint of green
People all around me settle on blankets and low chairs with baskets of fruit
and bottles of water and dogs and kids and grandparents
Music notes float gently on the sea breezes, cascading in rivulets of sound
out of the sun-warmed air and down upon our ears
WASO is playing a free concert in Freo on a Sunday afternoon
.and my heart swells with the beauty of it all.
(WASO = Western Australian Symphony Orchestra, Freo = Fremantle_ _________________ Be yourself.............everybody else is taken!
