Hearts Carved On a Tree

The sun is out The sky is blue Hearts carved on a tree Spell Me and You We stroll by the water Forget our cares Summer's here now To enjoy the fresh air Smell the red peonies Gorgeous pods on a stem Pick a few, don't deny The table its diadem Scoop up some stones Choose one smooth and flat Skip it across the lake and marvel at that... As the sun works its way Into the last gentle wave The day's etched in memories ~ For Eternity to save

Gershon, This is a wonderful excursion indeed. Your poems paint a scene as well any Norman Rockwell dreamed. -Richard

Richard, I think that you should post/publish this comment as a poem! E.g., "Special poems paint a scene as well as any Norman Rockwell dream." That's a 17-syllable monoku, by the way. Take it; it's yours, by rights!! Thank you so much! :) Gershon
