Still Enjoying Summer

A cool summer morning
Behind a cloud the sun is hiding
Pleasant fresh scent from trees of pine
Nippy air in the surroundings

Cooler breeze of southern winds blowing
Is it a little taste of fall season’s upcoming?
All the pollinators are hiding
Hoping it is just a phase that is passing

River flow is receding
Water is softly tapping
Under water buried rocks revealing
Attractive green foliage appearing

Ah, the sun came out
A pair of Blue Jays gave a loud shout
Flowers of Black Eyed Susan beamed
A lone Daisy swayed and smiled

Evening Prim Roses started closing up
Bees and butterflies showed up
Bumble Bees came to explore the flowers of Sweet Pea
Many insects flew in to enjoy the warming spree

The sun started shining brightly
The air started warming up nicely
I took off my sweater quickly
Magic of life-giving summer, I still want to enjoy thoroughly!!

Hello Smita Kulkarni, we must enjoy summer as long as we can because it is a short season. Have a nice evening my friend.
