Summer
The buzz of a bee over electric flowers of yellow and red
one little wriggly worm drop and all the baby birds are fed
green trees releasing oxygen oh ! the power of one sapling
Blossoms of beauty crowning my front porch, I will sing of,
the valor of summer and all of its charm
the valor of summer on my little farm
The fresh air that clings to my breath like fresh linen
and that white cotton dress that says I'm all woman
Sunday services and apple pie, old wood benches painted blue
butterflies flitting about, decked in every color and hue
children's laughter sale craft treasures its all beyond measure
inside this farmhouse I retain every past treasure
the valor of one summer mostly remembered
the valor of one kiss that never dismembered
from this aging mind of mine.
