Andrea Dietrich Poet Free verse

Enter, June

Enter, June; I’m filled with anticipation.
Flutter in on me! Like a lovely lark,
come trilling. 
Weariness has been a long time on my shoulders. 
Come thrill me!

Bring with you the moon and your passion. 
Yes, the lovers’ moon 
that poets so often sing of.
Winter brought me nothing but dreariness.
I need to be glowing.

Hurry, June, and bring very soon 
the summer’s sun,
for spring has been endless rain upon my pane.
Dispel the gloom! Please appear, dear June, 
and warmly embrace me.

Michelle Mac Donald May 28, 2011 at 5:11 AM You've done wonders (again) using this new form! June sounds good to me, Andrea. We're still getting April's showers. Whatever happened to April that caused her to weep on May? Anyhow, hope June arrives with warmth and a grinning sun. This sounds promising! Best wishes! Mikki

Poet Destroyer A May 27, 2011 at 9:59 PM Andrea, great poem... but June.. I hate hate hate... lol.. it'd stupid stupid.. stupidly hot... lol... Andrea, kidding.. I dread June, one, it means summer .. and summer here starts in late February... today our temperature was 104 degrees... I was all edgy... not even the middle of our hot weather... another reason. I hate June is personal.. another reason is my sons birthday falls on the day my mother passed away... boo. Wohh..& its also my lovers birthday.. crazy June.,..p.d.

Daver Austin May 27, 2011 at 10:48 AM Worst winter I can remember. Yes! "Enter, June." Very interesting form, like a spirit, kindly imploring a Pagan God. Reminds me of a mythical subject. Love it! LOve, daver

James Foulk May 27, 2011 at 10:47 AM yes I hope June brings warm weather with it. Like where you live, the sun starts to shine here some days, but then it gets cloudy and it rains, or stays cloudy all day. this has been the coldest May I ever remember. and we have had a record rain fall of 5 inches, with four days left. you wrote a great poem, good luck in contest. thank you for commenting on Bashful Sun.

Jack Horne May 27, 2011 at 10:47 AM Wow, you made this one look so easy - and I know it's not! Love it. I've finally tried the troilet : )

Kash Poet May 27, 2011 at 10:07 AM Couldn't get the definition clear .Anyway this is a good poem with nice imagery.Best of luck...:)
