The Joy of Summer

Enjoying the summer with its sunshine, flowers and warmth.

have a happy and enjoyable summer.

Thank you girls for bringing back the beautiful summer images.

I am your moon and your moonlight too
I am your flower garden and your water too
I have come all this way, eager for you
Without shoes or shawl
I want you to laugh
To kill all your worries
To love you
To nourish you.

Have a nice summer.

Sincerely,
Gisele

Thank you Gisele. I am happy that you could stop by again. I hope that you feel better.
Have a wonderful summer yourself.

******************************************

...Just one True moment of Love will last for days.
Rest all your elaborate plans and tactics for knowing Him,
For they are all just frozen spring buds
Far, so far from Summer’s Divine Gold.
Awake, my dear.

Rumi has a saying, “Raise your words not voice. It is rain that grows flowers not thunder.”

Summer is truly here with all the flowers in bloom.

Rainy season ends-
Water lilies in the pond
Suddenly open.

I Like this quote I dislike this quote“Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence. Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance. Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence. Winter passes and one remembers one's perseverance.”

Yoko Ono

summer again -
friends of two colors
side by side

In the summer rain
The path
Has disappeared.

Summer is here. Enjoy all its beauty.

 

That which God said to the rose, and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty, He said to my heart, and made it a hundred times more beautiful.

 

Why should I be unhappy? Every parcel of my being is in full bloom.

 

Summer is finally here.

Enjoy all the beauty that it brings.

 

Love,

Vicky

 

Summer is here, and it is a joy, indeed.

 

"What a beautiful, sunny morning.  It makes you happy to be alive, doesn't it?  We can't let the sun 
outshine us!  We have to beam, too!"
