Happy Summertime Sunday

Here’s a poem for you to enjoy on this summertime Sunday, my Gentle Readers.  I hope you have a lovely day!

The Summer Sun Shone Round Me

by Robert Louis Stevenson

The summer sun shone round me,

The folded valley lay

In a stream of sun and odour,

That sultry summer day.

The tall trees stood in the sunlight

As still as still could be,

But the deep grass sighed and rustled

And bowed and beckoned me.

The deep grass moved and whispered

And bowed and brushed my face,

It whispered in the sunshine:

“The winter comes apace.”

Happy Sunday
