Day 701: Summer Solstice


A short and simple poem for today, the Summer Solstice. It's almost like a mantra in its brevity, an affirmation in its quiet insistence on contentedness.

*(You might also enjoy reading Summer Solstice by Stacy Cassarino, last year's post. It's such a beautiful gorgeously written poem that I have to draw attention to it again! And, as it's the sun's day, Mary Oliver's ode The Sun is also choice reading :)



The Rising Sun - Sri Chinmoy

The rising sun
blesses my mind
with joy.
The setting sun
blesses my heart
with peace.
