A Taste of Summer

A cup of dainty daisies
   A whiff of lilacs' scent
A dish of vanilla-lace lilies
   Winter's flavors are spent

A lick of lemony sunshine
   A saucer of avocado herb
A spread of ruby-red roses
   Summer's temptations, superb

Hi Gershon, this is certainly the flavors and scents of summer, with a side of lemonade!

You know, I think that one of your poems lodged in my brain, and this one came out. Here's to sunshine! ~ gw

A bit footloose, as well. The question remains: Do I have a screw loose too. LOL. ~ Son of Senility

Oh, what a splendid point you've made, Robertina, about appreciation (of summer), about not taking it/ (summer) for granted. I was just in a class yesterday where that point was stressed... So much to appreciate and be thankful for, including your lovely comments and continued support, my friend!! Blessings and joy, Gershon

Your comment absolutely makes my evening, Andrea. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! This one came out of nowhere, and I was pleased with it after revising it a bit...And I was so hoping others might find it pleasing too. Greatly appreciated. Best wishes, Gershon
