The Spirit of Summer

In the wilds of my heart I dream of bliss. The summer sun will proclaim this. The shade of trees would circumvent the heating that the skies have sent. A mist of rain will feed the thirst of gorgeous blooms in color burst. The land has grown so lush and green where fruits of summer can be seen. The aroma of some barbeque in some backyard is rising too. Kids splash in swimming pool delight while fishermen wait for a bite. A happy smile lights up the faces of vacationers going places. This is a time without a care when coats are shed and feet are bare. Such is the joy of summertime with warmth of spirit so sublime.
