A Midsummer Day's Dream

In the warmth of the summer sunshine, below clear blue skies, the pink and the white roses outside my window, sway ever so slightly as the ocean breeze touches their pedals.

Behind them are impatiens in orange and in pink and around them are jasmine blooming brightly in little white flowers and emitting a heavenly scent. A honeybee is flitting from rose to rose as he adds to the charm of this glorious scene.

All of this magnificence is set in front of a sea of green lawn, defined by darker green needlepoint ivy stretching into the distance. Within the ivy are Eucalyptus trees seven stories high, their green leaves barely aflutter.

This scene is part of nature's rapturous beauty, as if painted by a magical brush, one so beautiful, that it captures the imagination and touches one's heart. Scenes like this are available far and wide to anyone who seeks a moment of peace and tranquility.
