Summer Family Social

Warm day

Grassy park

Shady tables

Soft breeze

Grilled chicken and ribs

Salads and deserts

Fickle

Gazing out my window,
        Seeing the morning sunlight
       Shining through white blossoms and fresh new leaves,
I exclaim , “What could be more beautiful!”
Then one morning, cool, heavily green,
Full of the promise of a summer day,
I sigh, “Nothing could be better than this!”
