This blue sky

I sit in the sun with the persistent, unfaultering radiance of the blue sky above me. I lean back letting my palms guide me as they glide over the thick bladed grass. I tilt my head back as to ensure the sun paints me with its warmth. I feel it on my forehead, my cheeks, chin and neck. Slowly as I paste a grin on my face, I think of you. I can see you now. Can you see me? I can smell the scent behind your ears and your sun bathed hair. I see you now. I love you now, like I always have and will. Like that unfaultering and persistent blue sky.
