Dear Edward, I love the fun and festive spirit of your July poem. Your vibrant verse reminds me of when I ran out in the street for treats! Simply splendid imagery throughout, but I especially enjoyed "summer swallows fly high in the sky" - just beautiful! Congratulations for your wonderful win in Andrea's contest. Warmest wishes, my friend.. ~Susan
