Summer Passion

The bustle of summer during the day Youthful cottonwood tree blows all about I am seen speechless with nothing to say Where extreme heat of the year fills with doubt Warmth collaborating with the cotton Youthful cottonwood tree blows all about Expression loses glare with its beacon The luster of the summer pleads with hope Warmth collaborating with the cotton Romance explodes in this season elope We sit near this tree kissing by the leaves The luster of the summer pleads with hope All of our hearts seem to reach the top eaves Where the sun perks and goes harmonizing We sit near this tree kissing by the leaves Summer keeps us nestled, burnt rejoicing The bustle of summer during the day Where the sun perks and goes harmonizing I am seen speechless with nothing to say

Interesting contest entry..Good luck..Since you spent this amount of time deciding exactly how it should go, reads like a winning entry to me..Thanks for the visits to my work..Your voice of encouragement is always there to lift me up when I am feeling down..I have dental and doctor's appointments today..The older I get the more I fall apart..Sara
