“Edge Of Seasons”

By Florence

Sunny Sunday
Beach breezes blowing coolness off the Atlantic
New roses, pink and petals fluttering
Riotous red Cardinals brightening georgeousness of greens hedges and tree leaves;
Trilling exciting new summer songs
People parading with surfboards under wetsuited arms
Bicyclers pedaling by; leaving trails of sunshine smiles as they speed along
Strollers taking in the sun on a pleasant constitutional
Babies happily babbling to the tune of perambulation
Neighborhood dogs calling bow wow hellos to each other
Dining al fresco, a mid day highlight
Enjoyment afoot

And then they roll in, sweeping sun from view
At once, in a moment’s time span, it is grey and misty
And all cools.
Goodbye May
Hello June

Nap time is nigh

    thanks for your kind comment.
    glad it made you feel good.
    i spent many years of summers indoors with a spine injury so i know what you mean. lots of my writing about nature was what i observed from my window. details i would have missed being hale & hearty & on the go, became lovely moments that gave me pause for reflection and peaceful enjoyment that i would have otherwise missed, if the universe hadn’t flattened me with an all out stop.
    today i’m grateful for what made me sad & frustrated.
    may your summer be filled with positive surprises which enrich your energy and insights & make you feel good too.
    in light
