I wish for more summer afternoons

 

“To see the Summer Sky
Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie -
True Poems flee.”
~Emily Dickinson

“Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.”
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

“Colored scents that fill the air as drowsy insects hum around in the meadow is the place of secret magic where nature alone renews itself.”
-- Kate Bergquist

“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time.”
-- John Lubbock

“Summer afternoon - summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.”
-- Henry James
