My Place in Summer...

My Orchard

My Orchard After Rain

The River I Bathed inIt has been raining almost for a week here in Ukraine and only today I suddenly realized that summer is over and I miss it so much, the time flew too quickly for me... bathing and playing in the warm water, splashing it over yourself when the heat is intolerable and feeling the wind blowing and sending little shivers down your body, lying in the sun, walking barefooted on the grass catching the morning due, listening to birds singing...Why I re
