Summer Sun
by Robert Louis Stevenson

Great is the sun, and wide he goes
Through empty heaven with repose;
And in the blue and glowing days
More thick than rain he showers his rays.

Though closer still the blinds we pull
To keep the shady parlour cool,
Yet he will find a chink or two
To slip his golden fingers through.

The dusty attic spider-clad
He, through the keyhole, maketh glad;
And through the broken edge of tiles
Into the laddered hay-loft smiles.

Meantime his golden face around
He bares to all the garden ground,
And sheds a warm and glittering look
Among the ivy's inmost nook.

Above the hills, along the blue,
Round the bright air with footing true,
To please the child, to paint the rose,
The gardener of the World, he goes.

In post 2961, it was kinda hard to make out the 'O' in 'HELLO' so I thought for a moment that you were mad at me. I really couldn't blame you if you were mad since, every time you post a graphic with an old car in it, I'm reminded of a boring story.

So........ today I'll talk about something really "far out" and completely out of character for this thread.

On second thought, I really need to go do some trimming with the weed-eater so y’all have a good day and stay away from Catfish John!
