Summer Solstice beauty thrills
walking forest paths so lush
never knowing who is far or near
tiny glimpses
charm my eyes
flowers one with butterflies
flowers and green cloak the earth
mother's hide their tiny fawns
blooms celebrate the sun's rays
a new season dawns

Beautiful shots, as always.

Nature at its most delicate beauty, making us feel so lucky to be part of it all! Isn't sight wonderful?
ReplyDeleteYou have captured the very essence of the season with the flowers, the tiny details and that woodland path is so inviting. We see the butterfly spreading her wings in the sun and that tiny fawn so sweet, so trusting that mother will return. So full of beauty.
