Borderline




The day ends on a softer note, the rolling landscape once more enveloped in twilight’s shadows. I breathe deeply of the moment, reaching far beyond the here-and-now to find the orchards in the distance.

The lush green leaves of the apple trees sway in time to a song only they can hear - and that song sends ripples of memory through my soul. I smile knowing that heaven has given me this day. A love offering unlike any other .. wrapped in the peace and tranquility of the grace that surrounds me.

I hear my name whispered gently on the breeze, and I listen as its fragile echo fades into the final seconds … and the last rays of the summer sun splash liquid gold across the hills.

The angels will soon paint a velvet blanket of darkness upon this canvas - and yet somewhere within me the feeling remains. Pleasures borne of sun dappled flowers and long hours spent beside the shores of a babbling brook .. time is captured in the blink of an eye.

Soon winter will return to claim the land .. a frosty reminder that nothing this beautiful can last forever. But for now there is only love .. and I will dream in the warmest of colors.

For these are the reflections I see .. etched for all time in the fleeting passage of a summer once remembered.

Thank you so much. This is one I wrote many summers ago. I think it has stood the test of time rather well and is one of my favourites.

Lovely blog.

Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Thank you Maudie. I tried so hard to capture the beauty and magic of a summer day as it comes to a close. Hopefully I did it justice.

It’s the small things and the quiet moments in life that carry the deepest meaning. Summer is the perfect time to slow it down and count our blessings. I personally have so many.
