Summer Shimmer

About the Piece

Inspired by the hazy summer afternoons, when the air is thick enough to touch, and the heat bakes the world into a shimmer haze.

What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months,
and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade.
~Gertrude Jekyll

Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....
Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
