POETRY
The Sun’s Warmth
An inspired poem

at the end of a long day
she sits, comforted
by the sun’s warmth
eyes closed
she feels the soft evening breeze
floating across her bare face
her aching hands relax
resting gently on her lap
and the mask she’s worn
all day
slips silently to the ground
forgotten
Thanks to my friend Eva for sharing her thoughts and requesting I create a poem from them. That inspiration was all I needed ❤
