foggy morning

deep blue

There is something in that deep blue

It is too far to see and too close to touch

It stands there, mocking me while I speak out in hush

There is something in that deep blue

pink sky

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched 

- they must be felt with the heart.

after the sunset

 And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.

Summer brings winter hearts together. 

Then, too soon, summer has to end and hearts become cold again. 

But we never forget that time in the sun.

the month of June trembled like a butterfly.”

April is a rainbow month,

Of sudden springtime showers.

Bright with golden daffodils

and lots of pretty flowers.

april´s charm

When April scatters charms of primrose gold 
Among the copper leaves in thickets old, 
And singing skylarks from the meadows rise, 
To twinkle like black stars in sunny skies; 

When I go forth on such a pleasant day, 
One breath outdoors takes all my cares away; 
It goes like heavy smoke, when flames take hold 
Of wood that's green and fill a grate with gold. 
William Henry Davies

the forest
