A Warm Summers Day

Time stood still on this warm summer day Flowers full bloom as their sweet scent wafts upon the warm summer breeze The clear stream weaves it's way between the trees as their full leaves provide shade from the heat of the day, two squirrels playfully caught in a game of tag while a robin sits perched in her nest taking a quick nap before her offspring wakes demanding to be fed Even the cat and dog play together on this beautiful afternoon when mother comes out of the house carrying a basket of wet clothes to hang on the clothes line so they can drink in the days many scents sealing it into every fiber smelling of this gorgeous day when the next one Pulls it from the closet and holds the freshness to their nose Ahh today is a perfect summer day Holding all those summer smells, and sights all teasing my senses I'm enjoying all these things happening in front of me Then I closed my eyes to fall into a peaceful sleep where I dreamt of the very same things I had seen Beauty that's followed me into my dreams Sponsor Brian Strand YOUR CHOICE(8),any form,any theme Poetry Contest

Thank you Rick! John Fleming told me to try to be more descriptive and I guess it works!;)

I thought I had commented already on this charming piece of prose...but apparently not: I find it all quite contentedly dreamy -- a lovely write!! With much fondness. :) john
