Mine is below:<br /><br />August<br /><br />August, the august month Augustus gave us, <br />Brings out the sun to warm our face<br />And calls for a time to be lazy.<br />Enough of a world so crazy<br />Just be lazy, like a laid down rake<br />Or children who lie on the lawn<br />And stare at the sky<br />To see nothing.<br /><br />Leave the lawn alone, August says.<br />Doff your cares and the workaholic ways<br />That forced you into this trance.<br />Take a chance on happenstance<br />Be yourself in a world long gone.<br />Lie down on the lawn<br />To stare at the sky <br />And see nothing.<br /><br /><br />Brian M.

It would be hard to picture any place better to inspire thought and writing. Writers are one of the most insightful people, and an environment that stirs the mind and the imagination is certainly a fitting place for such people to meet. Somewhere peaceful and quiet, where some writing can be done – that is the perfect place for a writer. ;]Rodger Cilibertohttp://www.preserveatwalnutsprings.com/ranches-for-sale-in-texas/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8339952139504907469.post-42443035997183620532012-09-06T17:07:28.737-07:002012-09-06T17:07:28.737-07:00Hi Darren,

They're great because they bloom from June through September here in Oregon. <br /><br />Brian M.

The ambiance that the nature has could help you to think straight, relax more, clear your mind, and be inspired. Oh by the way, may I ask: What is the flower that’s colored violet called in the first picture? It looks beautiful!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mirrranchgroup.com/ranches-land-for-sale-in-utah" rel="nofollow">Darren Lanphere</a>Ken Mirrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09041602589638298176noreply@blogger.com
