Big Bay

Shine on through

On a sunny day

I will journey to a big bay

The sun that shines

My mind unwinds

I enjoy my time

On this day

Sitting in front of a big bay

Some days I write

Some days I type

Other times I take a nap

Sometimes I'm joined by a cat

I don't know what else you want me to say

But I will always enjoy sitting in front of a big bay

If there is a street, I will watch the cars go by

If there is a street, I will see the neighbors, as they wave "Hi"

If there is a street, I will see the heat rise off the road

If there is a street, I will see animals cross, from squirrels, to chipmunks, and even a toad

Somedays I'm busy, my head clear, I'm in no fog

Other days I slouch and slump, like a bump on a log

Sun Days I like, people always have something that's going on

Rain Days I like, nature's soundtrack, a perfect song

By Keenan Barber on Unsplash

I walk towards the chair

There's somebody there

I go to usurp

A cat looks at me, rolls over, and chirps

By Paul Hanaoka on Unsplash

I move to one side, the cat to the other

If the cat leaves, it leaves, with my love I will not smother

I push a button to lift up the leg rest

The cat crawls between my legs. We both nap, for it is the best.

On any day

I will say

Whether it's good or bad

Whether I'm happy or mad

I will go to reflect and meditate

Sometimes staring out the window of a big bay

By Caleb George on Unsplash

I can watch the wind make trees and its leaves sway

I can watch the children run around and play

I can always see what goes on in the night

I can see the visitors at my door, from deer to raccoons. I'm the one that give them a fright.

By Scott Carroll on Unsplash

Not just a wall with a ceiling and a door in the way

I must say, that I enjoy basking in front of a Big Bay
