the sun

(via fiftywords:)

“Summer, you healed me. Your warmth coaxed me from winter and your breeze dried my tears. Your grass stopped my fall and your dog days licked clean my wounds. And the sun, that glorious globe of glowing, that heavy ornament of heaven, that blinding blot of gold, rose rosy again.”

fiftywords writes 50 word poems and I was curious enough to check, this is what I found: 1 paragraph, 229 characters (w/o spaces); 278 characters (w/spaces); 4 lines and wih out a doubt 50 words.
