I sure could spend a few days in this poem's setting. After reading "Afternoon in Paradise" I imagined myself there relaxing without the rush of time driving me on from one task or chore to the next. I've watched the sun melt into the horizon before but that was a long time ago. I sigh.
Glad to read this poem about the seas. Love the ocean myself and seagulls and any thing to do with this. Meaningful and lovely writing. You must be an ocean lover too.
Yup that's a great poem. But where has summer gone this year? Yes I have a hammock but today, 10th July, I am in a wooly sweater and wondering whether I should light the coal fire.
If there is no summer here in summer, then thank you for providing me with these verses which will I will think of as my eyes shut this night.

Reminds me of some poems by a friend of mine, Dr. Karen Springer, who
co-authored a poetry book with me (along with a couple of other people). You write'
a lot like her.
This exceptional book, Celebrating the Gift of Being Alive, has the perfect thoughts and words for birthdays, graduations, engagements, marriages, and any life celebration or family tradition.
