First Day of Summer, Northern Hemisphere, 2024
The Woods in Summer Pleasant it was, when woods were green, And winds were soft and low, To lie amidst some sylvan scene, Where the long drooping boughs between Shadows dark and sunlight sheen, Alternate come and go; Or where the denser grove receives No sunlight from above, But the dark foliage interweaves, In one unbroken roof of leaves, Underneath whose sloping eaves The shadows hardly move. - Longfellow It is only in heaven that Christians shall find metaphorically the abiding beauty of spring, the recurring enjoyment of summer, the constant fruition of autumn. There, the redeemed shall have no winter at all. Because they shall have the ever shining Sun of Righteousness, and invariably the river of nourishing Living Water.
