Summer Evenings…

Oh, how beautiful is the summer night, which is not night, but a sunless, yet unclouded, day, descending upon earth with dews and shadows and refreshing coolness! How beautiful the long mild twilight, which, like a silver clasp, unites today with yesterday! Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Oh! The Summer Night Has a smile of light, And she sits on a sappire throne… Barry  Cornwall
