August Night

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Sun starting it’s descent

Warm breeze flowing through my hair

A lawnmower cranks a few houses down

Speed boat in the distance

Water lapping against the dock

A fish splashed near me

Sounds of birds bidding the day goodnight

Last sun rays coloring the clouds

Children’s laughter down the river

Cicadas starting their evening symphony

This…this haven by the river

The river gently moving in and out of the Chesapeake

Prop plane hums overhead

My calming cooing doves

These warm evenings by the water will soon turn cool and a sweater will be needed. Leaves will begin their riot of breathtaking beauty…but tonight I will enjoy the warm breezes and sounds …summer nights drawing to a close…autumn’s glory and chill taking over too soon.

Yes…I am a summer water woman to my core…decades of summer nights passing far too quickly…. bittersweet memories…

Just breathe….breathe in summer’s last evenings

This journey called life has such beauty. Enjoy every last drop of your summer evenings..,they pass quickly…don’t miss one ❤️

My profession is an Interior Designer and Artist. My passion is my family and friends of whom without…life would hold zero meaning! Growing up in a small southern town life was definitely sheltered from the outside world. As an adult I very quickly began to understand that life’s journey is complicated and not always pleasant. These are the ponderings of my heart since the loss of my sweet son, Jonathan. Sometimes deep and sometimes very dark they are from my soul’s depths to somehow let others know they are not alone in the dark nights of the soul. These are the reflections on my life’s journey. Prayerfully I hope they help any hurting heart.
