a Ring, a Drum, and a Blanket

A multicolored blanket stretched on the grass.

A cloudless blue day,

The soft yellow sun raining down like daffodils.

A man sits on the blanket underneath the azure sky.

A gold ring glints on his calloused fingers,

Which are gently relaxed on a bongo drum.

The fingers begin to tap the surface and rim,

Creating a beautiful cacophony of noise.

Beating with the sun, on top of an Aztec blanket,

a gold ring shimmers on experienced hands.
