The Sock Drawer - 14. Bliss in 2007

Bliss in 2007

 

Strange blue wide screen

Wide range orange light beam

A tree that looks like Norma Jeane

Horizon sews a golden gleam.

 

All the garden’s smells are green

But its look’s a gentler tone

Brownish in the thick air’s sheen

At this time of day alone

It is not so very clean

And it soothes you to the bone.

 

Believers’ distant metal chime

Hot the coals’ red adders’ shine

Easy thing to spend the time

To keep this glorious evening mine.

 

Could I just on any other day

Stare my boring life away

With a precious sight like this

It would be just. Just bliss.

Norma Jeane = Marilyn Monroe

Beautiful imagery, Doc. I read this a few times; I really enjoyed it. :)

 

Oh, I think Norma Jean is w/o the 'e' on the end.

I thought so, too. But both imdb and wikipedia told me it was "Norma Jeane".

And thank you. :]
