Sunshine on my face
Laying softly upon me
Warm healing bright rays

Upon the shoreline
Pirates buried their treasure
Black X marks the spot

Sunshine cracks the clouds
Spilling out its bright warm rays
Morning starts to shine
In the deep dark night
Standing in an open field
Staring at the stars

Inside the oak tree
A loud and noisy blue jay
Calls out to the day

Underneath the tree
Sitting in its cool dark shade
A break from the sun
+
Hiding in the tree
Hoping that he is secure
Sheltered from the beast

Gone before you can see him
Protector of good

I’ve been given it some thought, and I think I’ve come up with my three favorite Superheroes.
Number 1: Batman
I guard the darkness
While the city sleeps below
Safely in slumber

Number 2: Spiderman
Up the wall he crawls
Moving with a spider’s ease
Slinging sticky webs

Number 3: The Flash
The CW has gotten me hooked on this character. I started Binge-Watching it this week, and I’m almost done with Season 1. To put that in perspective. I stay home with my two kids. I have about an hour each day and a few hours at night to watch this show. I managed to squeeze in 5 episodes yesterday. I couldn’t stop watching it and the only reason why I’m not watching it now is because my kids are about to get up. I honestly haven’t been hooked on a Superhero this fast or this quick since Batman. Amazing show. Don’t spoil it for me if you’ve seen it. I’m barely through Season 1, about at Episode 17. So, do you have a top three, five, eight, ten, etc. or do you have just one Superhero you champion?

Behind the white wall
Rips, tears, multiple scratches
The rats had found them

Hiding in the wall
Worried that they might be found
Nazis on the hunt

She fought against love
Putting up walls around her
Protecting her heart

This song has nothing to do with this post.
I’ve just been singing it since I read the prompt word for the week.
Humidity low
Running shoes moving briskly
Air – fall like and warm

I forgot how much I enjoyed listening to The Dave Matthews Band.
Enjoy.
Bright southern morning
Coffee, cast-iron cornbread
Helps to start the day

What is your favorite kind of cornbread?
Sweet or savory doesn’t matter to me – love it all.

Lake’s mirrored surface
Disturbed by a thirsty bear
Looking for a drink

Glass mirror reveals
A hard life the man has lived
The scars of his age

Mirror’s reflection
Revealed the long dark hallway
Something standing near

Wild mushrooms blooming
Stretching their soft round white heads
Towards the cool rain
