Summer’s Last Rose
I plopped myself down on the porch swing this morning for a moment of quiet time, and as I was transfixed by the sunrise peeping up over the green barn, its shimmering rays radiating through the dew in the trees..this gorgeous Yellow show-off stood in my line of sight, saying, “But hey!
