Summer Musical Observations

Sitting on the porch swing,

listening to the locusts sing their summer song

with a chorus of birds in God's natural harmony.

The wind directing it's orchestra of leaves and wind chimes...

and I watch as evening comes.

Billowy clouds sauntering across the blue with tinges of pink and orange;

a half moon high up and the excitement of catching a glimpse

of the first twinkling star.

Summer after summer, night after night

thankfulness bubbles up out of me for the faithfulness of this phenomena;

the peace I find in watching the day say good-bye

and the fire flies appear.
