Sleeping in the sun

[a_later_sunrise]

Summer sky overhead
The bright clouds whisper past
In a lazy chorus
Which drags the dozing eye to one of a hundred soft sights
And away again
Eyes closed into a red haze
The heat dancing
Coloured on shadowed lids
Gentle strokes of sunlight on skin
Tangible as the careful breeze
Which stirs the rainbows on the water
