About This Poem

Sights and Sounds of Summer

Morning comes with the rising of the sun
Birds are sitting on the fence posts chirping
Flowers so beautiful and sweetly fragrant
Bees buzzing as they suck the nectar

By noon the sun is covering my space
Hummingbirds have arrived to be fed
Sipping the nectar without a sound except
for the wisp of their fluttering wings

Evening comes as the sun goes down
We hear the rabbits hopping and the 
squirrels scurrying up the trees
The wind blows and the leaves rustle
Stars begin to twinkle up above as we
drift off to sleep

    A very beautiful poem, one can feel what the narrator is saying and relive it. That is true poetry.

    An Idyllic picture of summer. I wish we all could (or would) take time to experience it that way. The sound of rabbits hopping intrigued me. I've never heard that, but of course my hearing has always been bad. :-) -Dean

    As Jerry Keller sang in his hit song "Here Comes Summer", here comes summertime at last! Your work describes the season quite well.

    I think I was waiting for the wind to blow. Summer needs that relief as the heat can be unbearable at times.

    And then there was peace on earth. May we all know this kind of existance. :)
