Summer's last hurrah

Myrtle Beach, SC


Listen! You hear the grating roar
Of pebbles which the waves draw back and fling
At their return, up the high strand,
Begin, and cease, and then again begin, - Matthew Arnold (Dover Beach)

The greatest show on earth

Never did sun more beautifully steep
In his first splendor, valley, rock, or hill;
Ne’er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!

And when it grew so black

That I could know no place,

I lost all judgment then,

Of distance and of space....W H Davies

They drift on still water; Mysterious, beautiful!

....they drift on the still water
Mysterious, beautiful;
Among what rushes will they build,
By what lake’s edge or pool
Delight men’s eyes....                    - W. B Yeats ( Wild Swans at Coole)

Tree and house, and hill and lake,
Are frosted like a wedding-cake...R.L.Stevenson
