I lay on a beach towel in the patchy grass of my backyard.
My dog Gemma, lays beside me as I cover my eyes with my shirt,
while I bare my bikini clad body to the sun.
The doves coo in the trees above us.
The sun showers its light on us. A cool breeze keeps us comfortable.
Sunlight warms my limbs, seeping to my core.
I can hear tires rush along concrete and a yard crew blowing leaves.
The outside noises are not immediate, not important.
Gemma lays peacefully beside me,
the breeze brushes the grass against my arms, and the sun shines.
