The Daily Word for March 26, 2021

 

supine - adjective - lying or reclining face up


The word supine conjures up numerous optimistic images. Clinomaniacs (see yesterday's entry) who almost never get out of bed enjoy this position the most because it gives them a potential, full view of whatever it is that surrounds them. If in a typical bedroom, the view includes, but is not limited to an unobscured window, if they are lucky. 

Personally, I enjoy lying supine outside more than inside, preferably on a green lawn the thickness of padded shag carpeting, sans any irksome creatures, such as garter snakes. Why? From that position, the view of the sky on a mostly sunny day is idyllic. Much can be obtained from the miscellaneous formations of cumulus clouds as they stimulate the imagination, even that of a writer who needs the mental boost more than a small child. Lying supine alone is not as fun as lying with a partner as the possibilities are endless. You can fill in the blanks there. 

Go where the imagination takes you today, whether or not you choose to recline supine. The view from any perspective is glorious!

TGIF!
