For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Summer nights, so bright they are,
And filled with pleasure near and far.
The sights and sounds, both abound,
And they fill the air all around.
Crickets chirp with all their might,
And frogs are singing through the night.
Owls, while sitting in a tree,
Are always calling loud and free.
Moon so bright shines on the lake,
Reflected beauty it does make.
Now the loon’s long lonely call
Across the water, heard by all.
Nighthawks swoop, and turn around,
Oh, such delights which can be found.
And fireflies dance so bright,
Showing all, ’tis a summer night.

” Row row , row your boat,
Gently down the stream,
Merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream …”
Go and look what a scene ,
To stay humble and keen ,
Allow love and grace ,
to rule and reign ,
Wherever you areΒ and been ,
There could beΒ more than what it is seenΒ …
Sometimes , this what life couldΒ mean ,
( The last paragraph was written by me …)

Could I ask Would you reject links even if it contains useful and enriching information for others to read ?
I am not saying that this video is important though …

I’m sorry, but I have had to adopt a policy of no links at all, due to links coming through that I do not endorse at all. I’m not saying your links. But it’s easier and best I believe to just have one policy for all. It also takes a lot of time to go through each link to make sure it would be okay on my blog. I hope you understand. But if you wish to send me a link you may do so through my contact page. Thank you.
