August Blessings

Gentle light flows through the pines, Inviting the oaks, the laurels, to sigh, Echoing soft breath, smoke rising – Mist in the sky, a moment of silence Breaks the song, playing on the crisp morn’ This is summer’s sadness, when August Shadows the heat, the sweltering thoughts Erasing July quicker than sunlight erases The dew from tender petals who remember Only the beginnings of dawn’s presence Soon, Autumn will write its lyrics in dancing Leaves, vibrant promises of scarlet and gold, Enchanting the dreams with laughing hues, Music playing quietly on the still, cool morning When a heart reaches through the misty air This is the best recollection of the autumnal Wings, airborne, soaring gracefully over the Trembling skies – into the endless veils, vapors Still, ashen clouds, mysteries in the heavens, Inspiring poetry from those who write visions… Warmest wishes, feelings like leaves faded Beneath the strongest branches, oaks and birch, Inspirations beguiling the moon to heed the stars, Blow away the doubts from the storms, rains falling Melodiously, stirring the embers of a heart, a soul August noon awaits the temptations so soon removed, Washed away by the fond webs, the drying memories, In tones of ashen amber, soothing auburn, reflections Breathing out psalms along the mountain ridges, Repeating the trembling hopes, the dreams of a spirit Eminent woes, memories peeled away in layers – Intimate and healing, reassuring that fall will be what it will be, Always alive with reflections, embraces, traces of hope, Heartfelt desires and wondering affections kissing the truth, Abiding inside those who know this is God’s unfinished painting – This is the treasure of summer poured out in wistful Memories and promises, prayers for the seasonal grace, The inspirational – the thanks, given to the One who Captured light and poured it across the earth in one enchanting Explosion of amazing, marvelous, stunning – even the greatest poet Can’t write a wonder like that – His hand, His sculpture, His creation… baffles even the most confident artiste With God, there is no impossibility and no reason for upset With Him, not only autumn, not just august, but the entire heart – the whole life, the entire soul – is blessed!
