THE ELOQUENCE OF A SUMMERS EVE

The warmth lingers from the long summers day..
The still fragrant air permeates from
each flower bouquet..

The summer day succumbs to a warm evening with soft gentle light..
Long  fingerling shadows drift silently, blissfully into the  night..

Perpetual tender thoughts
rule in this lasting night air..
Those graceful  sweet images float effortlessly,
Without  sorrow, without care ..


In this brief moment of  stillness there is an eloquence to this sensuous evening..
Life's bitterness is now but a faded memory...
It is replaced by the beauty that surrounds, as it envelops me..

Simple serenity coupled
with  the sweetness of its
grace and light..
I quietly gaze into
the last evening rays
 of this eloquent summers
night   ...
