Early Summer

It is an early summer’s day

The sun is out in full force

The sky is bright blue

There are a few white clouds scattered through the sky like a thin white veil

There is a slight breeze - cool to the skin

You are sitting in a field of wild flowers

They are all colors

Like a rainbow

They move gently to the breeze

As you sit

A cloud of butterflies and hummingbirds surround you

They are all colors -- purple, blue, yellow, red, and gold

As you put out your hands, they light onto your hand before flying away

Then, in the distance one of the birds appears

It is emerald green with a touch of pink

It flies close to you

It is so small it could fit in the palm of your hand

As you look at it, its movements slow down so you can see the wings beat

You are mesmerized

Your heart starts beating at the same rhythm

As you close your eyes and listen to the breeze the hummingbird

touches your face gently with a kiss before flying away

You feel calm and pure bliss

As if you touched heaven
