Summertime Splendor

Pebbles surfacing the shore reach my toes, I dip in each foot to feel the warm reverie- For I know the beauty that no one knows, as the gulls are flying with mighty liberty. I am astounded by nature's sanctity. Azure waters ease my troubled mind, the ivory clouds bestow silent relief- in this moment it's marvel I find, and I dance and prance in misbelief. There is nothing as lovely as this motif. Waves cascade and I drift into a dream, I am restless and feeling a bit animated- brilliant is the day with the high sunbeam, and feeling the charm the Lord created. For in zealous delight I am saturated. I need not riches nor wealth to bring ease, just this canvas of summertime splendor- in moments like this my anguish does cease, and I am amazed at nature so tender. To the Lord's pure essence I surrender. July 7, 2018
