The summer breeze caresses, Tenderly stirring tresses, Intimately tingling my skin, So soothing the warm wind. Perched in awe peering down There is scarcely any sound But wind whispers in my ear, Reminding that Eden is here. Waterfalls gracefully cascade Creating a cool summer glade, Blue water pools sparkle below As diamond filled punch bowls. As pictures in a fairytale book Beauty is everywhere I look, Fragrant flowers are blooming, Singing songbirds are zooming. Paradise lies before my eyes Lush green under golden skies, Arranged as a beautiful bouquet Decorated in a splendid array. Nestled beneath mountains crest Kissed by gold sky a valley rest, Where I dwell glimmers for miles As a brilliant emerald green isle. Tranquility completely surrounds Where dazzling beauty abounds, Spellbound by the marvel of it all, I stand in grandness made small. I am so blessed to have this nest, This valley under mountains crest, Here I'll stay till my time is done, In this Eden aglow in summer sun. ©Written by: Kenneth J.
