A Summers Day

This pale blue sky, 
wispy cirrus 
passing by 

This warmth of sun 
on deep green, 
bubbling stream does run 
This blue butterfly has to be seen 


A summer's day 
birds at play, 
smell this soft green grass 
long may it last 

A summer's day 
A Spitfire climbing in to the blue, 
keeping enemy at bay. 
I lie back,enjoying the view 

Steady drone of Rolls Royce 
the Spitfire's voice, 
makes my hair tingle 
lone fighter in to the blue. 
I feel I want to be it too 

This pale blue, 
lifting Spitfire, 
flying straight and true 
in to the suns's fire 

A summer's day, 
Spitfire at play 
This deep green 
has to be seen 
This blue butterfly 
rising high in pale blue sky
