Enchanted Summer (Reversed Etheree)

Sunflowers imitate the sun’s bright hue; 
birds take flight in sunny skies of blue.   
Trenchant traces seen from the hill    
view joy below, peaceful, still.    
Solstice comes without sound 
where peach trees abound   
in summer’s blush. 
Soon autumn
breezes 
blow.

Connie, your etheree of summer charms sings to me! I loved how you even had the rhyming, on top of the syllable count. Such talent. A very belated congratulations for your win in Andrea's contest... I know she loves etherees, so to be awarded a win by her is quite the honor! Enjoy your day ~ John
