Sunday Stroll - Green and Blue Afternoon


You can find peace 
on a green and blue afternoon


if you hold still,




and turn your face to the sun.



Peace flows down through the trees,


hums near the water's edge,


and lingers 
in the shadows and light .

Wherever you are, whatever the weather, I wish you serenity.


Head on over to Out on the Prairie to see the pretties that Steve discovered on his Sunday Stroll.

Glad I got out early, turned a scorcher here. Looks like the Swamp milkweed is blooming at the same time as I have seen it here. Love that dainty yellow bloom.

Thanks for visiting, Steve. The yellow blossom is St. John's Wort, blooming wild. Love the color. It is cool here, after a long, soft rain.

Hi Marcie! Oh, that's a lovely tree photo! I always enjoy your word choice, good poet.

Marcie said...

Sandra, Thank you! The cool evenings have been nice. Today is hot and humid, but I am hopeful that the evening will bring relief! Stay cool where you are, if you can!

Pom, Thank you. Trees make amazing subjects for photos, don't they? Sometimes, the words just write themselves, as the photos are set into place. Thank you for all your encouragement!
