The Pool Ballet

Tonight as I floated in my inflatable pool chair, I paused in my reading. Well, really, the light teased me as I was trying to read. The setting sun's rays skipped across my page and begged me to look there towards the west, where the wind tickled branches of the trees, dancing about the clear blue sky. The pool sweep swirled and twirled about the pool, as to the music the birds sang in time with the swaying trees. Even my husband unknowingly participated as he drove back and forth and around in circles on his riding mower. One of the birds joined the ballet and lighted gingerly on top of a branch that was too small for its size, causing it to bow down to the audience below. Thank you God for this beautiful performance!
