LAZY MORNING

NOW is the time to enjoy what's out there... Sit down, take a deep breath and look around you...  Don't worry about the weeds that need to be pulled, the edges that need to be dug, the spent blooms that need deadheading.  Just breathe...  Inhale... Exhale...  It's summer... It won't last forever except in your memory.

SUMMER AFTERNOON

As it has been said before, the two most beautiful words in the English language. SUMMER AFTERNOON. No matter how hectic the schedule or busy the mind, undone tasks put aside without a hint of remorse. Touching the sweet, green grass, lying down on its softness, looking up at the bright blue sky and slowly, oh so very slowly... finding the shapes in the clouds. SUMMER AFTERNOON. A peaceful memory to carry me through whatever the months ahead may bring. SUMMER AFTERNOON. It's worth repeating once again. So go ahead, say it.
