Lazy Days of Summer

The warmth of the sun
shines upon my face
I squint as I shade my eyes
with the back of my hand
a presence of serenity soothes
my shaken spirit this day
as the dream state of summer
dances before me and quietly
it whispers softly in my ear
"catch me if you can"
I smile as I know it is within my reach
and soon I will bask in those
Lazy days of summer
where bathing suits and sun glasses
become the norm and worries -
they swim away disappearing into
the hazy, lazy days of summer

Your words are perfect for summer.
The words make me close my eyes and dream in each moment.
I hope your days are blessed and nights peaceful.
