Summer Solstice Cumulus clouds drift lazily across the western prairie skies A gentle breeze barely moving the provincial and country flags The suns' tender touch warms and sooths while healing land of winters scars Spring rains refresh bringing to life dormant foliage and trees alike Sounds of springs’ rebirth fill the air with calls of young for mothers touch Myriads of flowers gives a show displaying rainbows of colors Love blossoms the way nature blooms making hearts and soul seek someone Springs’ air becomes an elixir inhaled by those who have a dream Twilight has come later each day giving more time for loves romance Moon and star - fields seem brighter still as time moves to Summer Solstice Karen Mc Neil June 21, 2012Z *may our dreams ever be magical* |

Great, Karen, how you merge the environment into each other as you move from clouds to sun to flowers and keep the dalliance with nature until you finish it off with the Summer Solstice. Refreshing . . . ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |
