AHHHHH Summer . . . but Oh those summer nights . . .

“The summer night is like a perfection of thought. ” ― Wallace Stevens

I love summer - I always have - to me it signifies childhood and beauty and warmth and love . . . I don't know why but ever since summer vacations from school - I have always loved summer- especially summer nights. Maybe even before I was in school - when I lived in Hawaii and experience warm beautiful sunsets and nights. When I was young, we played night tag, we ate ice cream, we swam, played, just had FUN - and the sky - I always loved the summer night's sky -the stars, moon, warm, clean, fresh summer night air . . . Then when I got older - summer nights were for hanging out with friends, dates, cruising the strip, and yet still the summer night sky -with it's mysterious stars, moon, and the awesome summer warmth. Even now every night we take Bella for a walk with the dogs . . . and I am lucky enough to live in Arizona so all year around it is like a summer fest - and our night walks - the warmth, the stars, the moon, the deep blue of the night sky and now the palm trees shadowing the moonlight - wow how awesome . . . I would say it makes me feel young again - but luckily I have never lost that feeling of youth . . . Thank God for summer nights . . . or should I say . . . Thank God for every night in Arizona . . .
