A Summer Evening Poem by Joseph T. Renaldi

Imagine, the need for peace and solitude
Found on a serene summer evening,
When sunsets are attractive and beautiful
And the brilliant colors seem to be weaving.

Behold, the sky resembling a tapestry
In a conglomerate of shades of bold.
The fading crimson skein generates
To hues of mellow yellow and gold.

Oh! How remarkable a moment of calmness
As the twilight shadows begin to form,
Enabling one to rest, relax, and meditate,
Creating a mind free of agitation and storm.

How one needs a welcomed, balmy atmosphere
Where worries and problems are cast aside,
To just enjoy the quietude of a summer evening,
And feel a sense of satisfaction inside.
