Lent 2014- 10th April: gazing at the view

One of life's 

simple pleasures

is of course

to gaze

forever 

at the view

of dancing clouds 

and rolling weather

of patchwork quilts 

knitted together

secrets hidden 

amongst the leaves

some to be seen 

on bended knee

or stood 

side by side 

in solidarity

much to behold 

in art

and science 

In history 

and mystery

of bygone 

year on year

there is much 

to gaze

and admire

warming views

of sandy shores

of setting sun 

in foreign lands

of rolling hills

in Gloucestershire

Maybe a view 

of grass 

and sheep.

maybe just 

a piece of cake

or icecream flake

Or Devonshire teas

with views of

sea and sail.

Or just 

a silly photo 

of Jo's snail

what do 

you 

simply

see 

that gives 

you 

pleasure?
