June 21st is the first day of summer.
Night will give way to day.
The sun will take its slowest walk across the sky.
Birds will follow in lazy circles.
Flowers will unfold and stretch.
Children will play.
Each player in summer's choir will be assembled for our joy.
And the music of life's symphony will be one long riff.
Get ready to listen to summer's song.
We still have time...
to unplug from technology,
to let go of fear,
to pause anger's daily grind.
We still have time...
to practise a smile,
to reach out to someone we love,
to relax on the lawn,
to lay on the beach,
and enjoy the June-July-August concert series.
Summer's music is the message.
Listen closely...
