The Way I See It

An American woman's views on current and social topics.


Summer Dreaming

Summer is quickly approaching. I’ve always loved summer. The smell of the ocean as the breeze warmly caresses your skin on the beach. The view of a lake surrounded by mountain greenery emanating a blissful feeling of peace. I was always certain that God lives in Lake George because I have never felt such a contented, totally peaceful aura as I experienced during my visits to this beautiful lake. When I dream of summer it always includes children playing and laughing, picnics and an overall feeling of complete freedom. I long to take long drives in the summer. Eat lobster on a pier, enjoy Ralph’s ices or Spumoni Gardens’ Spumoni. Eat a fresh slice of New York pizza while strolling down an Avenue. Holding hands while walking along a tree lined path. There are so many visions of summer, too many to list here so I’ve decided try and capture my feelings about summer and share them here with my poetry and random pictures with the hope that my readers’ summer dreaming will bring them as much pleasure as it brings to me.

Happy Dreaming!

BEAUTIFUL SUMMER

Tangerine hue glistening gold upon the subdued foam

Astounding beauty encapsulating the soul

An emotional upheaval entwines from within

Tossed between melancholy and a grin

Past memories and tomorrow

Unable to turn away

What seems a lifetime-reality-a few moments

As the summer sun lights the dawn

Promising laughter, freedom and joy

Its’ summer kiss a promise

Its’ caress enrapturing our mind

Yes, it’s summer once again!

About Me

As an average, American born woman I’ve decided to write and share my thoughts and beliefs in a blog. This blog will be very simple and hopefully click with the rest of the people out there, who feel as I do, but just can’t express it with words, on a variety of subjects.
