Happy Solstice!

It's the summer solstice today, the longest day of the year :)  A few years ago it fell on the weekend and my friend had a solstice party, so I did see dawn in.  As I have to work today I won't have stayed up Monday night to see the dawn, and I highly doubt I'll have woken up to catch dawn (I'm writing this in advance and scheduling i)t.  But, I will enjoy how late sunset occurs, from the safety and comfort of my house.

I hope everyone has a good day today :)

(EDIT -  this was meant to post at sunrise morning.  Oops).

  2. 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
