THE SUMMER SKY

I'm off...

To see the summer sky

or

as Emily Dickinson would say more eloquently than I...

"To See the Summer Sky

Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie--

True Poems flee."

And who knows?

Maybe I will return with a few poems of my own

inspired by my travels and gazings at the night sky! 

And of course

I'll take heaps of photos
(like the one above - from last year's memories).

I'll miss you all, so you can be sure that I'll be back

for as another poet says,

in a poem I dedicate to YOU,
this time by William Shakespeare...

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate.

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer's lease hath all too short a date.

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimmed;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed.

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;

Nor shall death brag though wand'rest in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time though grow'st,

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee."

See you in a fortnight!
