Summer Skies



Under a canopy I lie
Backed against an azure sky
A lattice made of evergreen
Woven from the charms of Spring.
Sleepy peaceful summer mood
Light and breezy days of June
Call me from reality
And welcome me to sunset's dream.

I wrote this poem several years ago, but it has been coming to my mind as I have sat under the shade of the large oak in our backyard. And today the boys gave me the perfect opportunity to share it as they gazed above at the light shining through the leaves of our tree.
