SUMMER

The moon's a quarter up
    and it's only mid-afternoon.
The birds down the valleys sing
    on wings come not too soon.
The wavy rattle they start
Brings Summer to my part.
With days like this serene
In blues near hillside green,
Anxious for Mid-night jive
To stir the feelings live,
Then reminisce of times just past
'Till these like they are them.

Thanks for sharing this... Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
