Aural Tapestry

Yin and yang entwine

in the fabric of my day

aural tapestry

unfolding panorama

glimpses of Eternal Life

Summertime!

Sun baking bathers,
sand filling cracks;
gallons of Coppertone
slathering backs.

From my cabana,
timer in hand,
I call out, “Roll over!”
so both sides get tanned.
