June

June, you welcome the sunset afterglow Of a new brimming full Strawberry Moon. The final full moon of spring you bestow. Amid your warmest longer days’ balm flow And shortest nights given a silver tune. June, you welcome the sunset afterglow. Nature's inflorescence meadows charm grow In gleaming fabled moon heart start to swoon. The final full moon of spring you bestow. Summer solstice first day of season show Children's joyful laughter till afternoon. June, you welcome the sunset afterglow. Romance inspires inviting night to slow Down endow with poetic lovesick loon. The final full moon of spring you bestow. You brighten the world gardens with their boon Among the rhythm rain that may be gone soon. June, you welcome the sunset afterglow The final full moon of spring you bestow. 7/14/2020

when you believe in something; this all can be anything that consistently works for you individually ("Especially when and if, and just exactly wherever we all can possibly be helpful to another, special, something or someone who are in essence, just like ourselves each individually, and ever-vitally") you; can apply yourself towards this effort with all of your heart and mind, and body; spiritedly, and ever-soulfully as well as emotionally, systematically, and ritualistically."
