The Longest Day.

Goldfinch60



Well it is here,

The longest day is here,

What shall I do with it?

Dawns early light came,

The birds called to me.

Out I went to join them,

The beautiful morning

Bringing joy to me.

As I walked along the path

The green trees shading me,

Shading me from the sun.

The sun that gets higher,

Higher and brighter.

The temperature rises,

The shade protecting me.

I arrive by the lake,

I sit and look out,

Look out over the water,

The clear green water.

The swans glide on it

I just sit and look,

Look at the peace before me,

Bringing peace to my mind.

The light lasts so long,

So long on this day,

A day to be savoured,

As I enjoy my life,

My life of peace and love,

On this day,

This longest day.
