The Bookish Kind: Summer Sky

Summer Sky

Is anyone else peeking out each night at the summer sky?

Planets and moons and stars, northern lights. Beauty formed and directed by the Hand.

I notice as much as I can.

It's really all any of us get to take with us, after all.

Yes, I've been watching Jupiter and Venus with interest. Such a lovely summer sky. A few nights ago I could see Jupiter and Venus and a full, orange moon in the sky. It was magic.

Joy

I will never tire of the wind,
be it a cold winter blast
that takes me off guard
with it's bitterness,
or an exhilarating spring or
fall tempest that sweeps me away.
I get caught up in it every time,
...it's as if the wind is calling
my name to come out and play.
The trees become my cohorts,
...those gentle giants that sway
back and forth with delight,
as they gracefully bend to and
fro - they get caught up every time,
too, and are surely clapping their
hands in mirth.
In these moments, I am a
beautiful bird who was made for nothing more than ascending
to the heights where the currents await me. Joy.

For the beauty of the earth
