Summer comes to a ripple of waves where palms bend and sway beneath leafy shadows diffusing the heat rising changing sands from warm topaz to cameo blending into cool gray. Drifting wood widdles away worn and smooth sea shells fade to pastel shades natures beauty lies adrift like soft cotton caressing the shapeless wind. Calm passes in the silent stillness like a whispered hush in slow motion beneath a crescent moon rising settles down low in the summer sky. Moved by the endless turning of tides. |

Summer comes to a ripple of waves where palms bend and sway beneath leafy shadows diffusing the heat rising changing sands from warm topaz to cameo blending into cool gray. truly love the opening lines..and the rest of course, but these lines with your addition of color, the contrast of heat and cool and use of cameo.. truly are fine... |
