With chilled strawberry soup...
after you wander in your flower garden...
watching your wee friends take tea together...
under the tumbled flora and fauna of the cottage garden...
sitting beside the brook reading The CATerbury Tales...
dreaming of the days spent by the sand and sea...
How do you imagine your purrrrfect summer's day?
Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day? (Sonnets XVIII)
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.
-- William Shakespeare

Beautiful, Miss Peach! :) Lovely post by a lovely ladycat! :)
That sounds very restful, Miss Peach! Could we have some well-chilled Catnip Soup?
Oh my - that made our evening!
And, that's mom's favorite poem - she and a student were quoting it today. :)
Ahhh....any summerday would be perfect with you!
Much love!!!
Ooh Miss Peach you have inspired me to post some photos that Mummy took in the garden that's now in the location of the house in which Shakespeare was born. The show that Isis was in a few weeks ago was just around the corner from there, across the road from the church where he is buried! I think you will like the pretty flowers...

Your post today makes me want to give a contented sigh, and curl up in a cozy spot with a lovely peachy cat ;)
I'm sorry you were having stoems! I hope things have settled down some. It is warm ,but not hot here. It is overcast,but the sun will peek out later :)
I really love your scrapbook page :) I may need to have that :)
Stay cool in your frying pan :) If it gets too hot come over here and we will go sit on a beach that is never very far away in Nova Scotia :)
Purrs, your Moonshine <3
Mewom says she wants to be IN that sand and sea picture! As long as we can nap and play, that is a good day for us!
This was a lovely post Miss Peach!
That was lovely. I shall have to come for cozy tea at your house.
What a beautiful post Miss Peach!
You made me all relaxed and snoozy!
Dearest Miss Peach,
That was lovely - and it's just how we all would picture a perfect Summer's day.
Oh, Peachy, that was a lovely post today -- just beautiful! I have never had chilled strawberry soup. I'll bet it's delicious. Perhaps I will teleport over this afternoon to try some.
Kissies and purrs,
Normie, your special little (tiny) friend
Chilled strawberry soup, momma says it's delightful on a hot summers day! I think a purrfect summer day would be at mimi-beans house, surrounded by her lush gardens. Momma and me would be on the big back porch with the fans going sharing an angel food cake with cream!! ~Queen Snickers
I am imagining sitting in your beautiful patio having tea or coffee with you and Mommy Karla. We will have a sweet treat too of course. :)
Karla can show me how to do all kinds of lovely crafts while I let sweet Miss Peach curl up on my lap.
I just adore that poem and the flower pictures, especially the one with Peachie are so pretty!
I think a lot of my errand running is done for now. Tomorrow I can get back to more household chores and bloggie visiting.
Toeshee is still pretty wild and will snuggle with me for a a few minutes at a time. I think the big kitties are miffed with me, the "grrls" are at least. Cody is fine. I miss my Velcro Kitty.
I hope you have a beautiful summer evening Dear Ones,
Love and Hugs,
Lorianna
It looks like you had a beautiful summer day under a tree having tea Miss Peach. That was a lovely poem. Mom loved the pictures of the roses. She especially like the white and blue rose. She couldn't believe that they were real. Well Miss Peach I hope you have a very special evening for a very Special You.
Casper
You look very ready for a nice restful day lazing around in the summer sun. Enjoy your day.
Tiki, Tavi, Cody and Camie
