Shades of Summer



Perspective and direction paint different shades of summer
in front of me facing west, I breathe in the air of the Gulf
as the evening sun begins to retire into the horizon
and low tide rolls gently to the shore rinsing the shells

I turn and glance south and the sky is cool
blues are turning purple and blending with pink
an Artist's water color, soft and wispy
like carnival cotton candy

I turn and glance north and the sky is warm
blues are spreading into the cottony white clouds
golden glow casts out, bringing orange into pink
beachgoers trying to capture its beauty

Small under the vastness of the sky
we are extras in nature's theater
spectators of the scenic artistry
gazing up at the shades of summer
