Long Summers Day

The watery sun lifts up in the sky, Water gently glimmers with small breeze formed waves, Birds start to twitter as they get ready to fly, Animals start the search for the food that they crave, The sky is such a startling blue, As the day goes on the sun slowly rises, And in the shade there are shadowy hues, All nature is busy, the graceful swans seem the wisest, The day slowly gets hotter and I head for more shade, When the days at its hottest everything is totally quite and still, But we all are hoping this day does not fade, When the sun starts its slow drift toward the far distant hill, As it reaches it's last moment insects skim the water looking like small puffs of steam, Then a fish breaks the water, was this day just a dream.
