    Default Happy Summer Solstice

    It's Officially Summer! Blessings to you and your family



    Midsummer (written by JT - found on internet)
    Longest day
    Shortest night
    Longest light
    Shortest dark
    The world within
    Echoes the world without
    Lush foliage, leaves unfurled
    Soft springy grass dotted with
    Brightly colored flowers peeping through
    The earth is green and bright
    With warm sunny days
    Clear velvety blue skies
    Gentle cool breezes
    Nature in glory
    Our hopes blossom
    Creativity flowers
    With the season
    The seeds of the fruit
    Our desires will bear
    Can be seen
    On the stems
    Of our dreams
    I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!

    The days will be getting shorter from here on out. Good because I am getting tired of and am starting to look forward to the fall.

    I have a kindred spirit! I've never been much of a summer person, either.

    The humid heat we have here in the midwest is sooooo uncomfortable! Not to mention bad-hair days (frizz) and makeup melting off in 5 minutes.... Ugh.

    Happy summer to you too! I'm not convinced we're actually going to HAVE a summer yet....we're having "Junuary" here so far.
