Farmer's Tan


Rene ~ 2010

make a wish
but don't tell me
i want to remember 
how things are
 right now
happily splashing 
through life's puddles
with our farmer's tans
we don't own a thing
but we got
 everything

Peace ~ Rene 2010

  3. We don't own a thing. Truth, we never own anything. That suggests some permanence and there is none. Great work, thanks.

  10. It's easier to have everything when you aren't tied down owning things....

There was a haunting beauty behind her eyes, beyond her sorrow, a beauty that found its way into one’s heart and led them home.
