Summer Solstice 2012

By Amber "V" Moonstone

6/21/12

The sun burned so strong,
It was radiant orange
blazing a solar day
longer than the quiet night.

Summer Solstice
Nature's way of new beginnings,
offering us a long day of sunshine
to bring us peace when the sun goes down.

Watching the brilliant sunset,
drop over the ocean,
ending the longest day
I felt a peaceful wave of energy.

The ocean glistened as if it were filled
with lusturous diamonds and pearls.
My heart lept with joy,
As the sun was finally setting.

The moon was a sliver of silver,
radiating it's own magic
resting softly among the fluffy clouds.
The summer has begun!

Let  your days be filled with joyful play,
toil not until the break of eve,
but find yourself a playmate
that will be your every dream.

Sit among the flowers,
relish in the newly cut grass of summer,
soak your feet in Nature's healing bath,
and grab yourself another stab at life.

Don't hide among the clouds,
smile as if you know something
that no one else knows,
and then find yourself knowing your truth.

Sit among the fields of lilies,
smell the intoxicating aroma
let your feelings be heard,
and say "I love you" when you mean it.

Reap what you sow,
plant seedlings of ideas,
so they will grow into fruition,
on this Summer Solstice evening.
