Syllabic Verse

A bit of humor here today as I am remembering the 50’s and a favorite saying of that time ” peachy keen jelly bean” which was also a line in one of my favorite movies, “Grease”. As I was creating this peach collage today for an Instagram challenge I am participating in, I was reminded  of this saying which brought me a smile, so I thought I would share it with all of you. 🙂

Rose bloom in colors of peach, yellow and pink

I think that I shall

Never see

Any one so lovely

On my walk this evening I saw this beautiful rose in bloom in a yard I was passing by. It seemed to be glowing in the evening sunlight. I could not just pass it by without taking a photo. I just love its multi colors. Such beauty needs to be remembered!

Creamsicle Sky, sunset, Oregon

Celebrating late

National Creamsicle Day

Creamsicle sunset

Haiku

Tonite we had the most beautiful sunset in different shades and layers of orange, peach and cream colors. The camera on my phone just didn’t capture the colors exactly as I saw them because as I looked at it I thought of a Creamsicle which I have always loved to eat!

A quick Google search told me that National Creamsicle Day was on August 14th which was two days ago, but the sky was cloudy then and there wasn’t a sunset, so I guess God decided to celebrate it late and gave us this creamsicle sky tonight! 😊
