A quiet me

I grab a blanket, a pillow, a book,
and make myself a reading nook.
Under the shade of a tree,
is where you'll find a quiet me.

I take a break to look at the sky,
for different shaped clouds rolling by.
I listen to the birds and the planes,
while I work on a puzzle train.

The sun is warm, the breeze is cool,
I watch some ants march away from the pool.
Soon I'm getting sleepy, I need a nap,
time to curl up in my mom's lap.

    1. Yes I did write it. My plan was to just write a couple short paragraphs on taking quiet time outside for a change, and I just started rhyming in my head as I started writing, so I changed my game plan for the post. This one inspired some ideas for other possible "Me" poems that I hope work out!
