- A Summer Day- Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

- A SUMMER DAY-

The coolness of a Summer breeze
On the hottest of Summer days
The briskness of a trickling brook
Beneath this steamy haze.

The comfort of a shady tree
With a book propped on my knee.
The whisper of a Father's word
So gently sent to me.

I love this time when none can see
Away from all the world
When you send each breeze to touch my cheek
And my life is now unfurled.

When mysteries that I've kept inside
Can be released to You
And all those worries that I hide
Can be cleansed from me anew.

And now I go back into life
Refreshed by God's own hand.
He has, to me, given new strength
And by His side, I'll ever stand.
