paradise

The big willows hung low to the ground if to bend down and talk with me. My family was sprawled out in the soft cool grass below. The feeling of love was so strong as I gazed upon this beautiful scene. The sun was sparkling through the long hair of the willow tree upon the cards laid out infront of us. We were gathered in a circle hiding smiles behind our cards as excitement built up as I watched my dad draw the next card. Lying on my stomach feet up and sweet grass smells filling up my head my only concern being my desperate need for a king to complete my hand.The moment of truth ....and it was a six of spades. My brother eyes darted back in fort from his cards to the six and in a quick second blurted out " ooh mine!"I rolled on to my back as i listened to my aunts playfully tease him for his giant handful of cards. I stared up at the giant willow and her long flowing green hair playing with the sun. I was enjoying this easy summer moment in this magical relam of the willows embrace. A bubble from the real world sheltered behind the willows branches surround by people I love.
