So beautiful and cheering what you have depicted in poetic words, from and feelings! Thank you so much, Tom for adding a lot of Beauty to the world of poetry! Hope you are enjoying a great summertime! My deepest regards and blessings.

I do love your umbrella shaped poem with the summery illustration. Life gives us so much with just the seasonal changes. Thanks for commenting on my short story, “Waiting for Scraps.” Purely fictional -I like stretching my imagination at times. Enjoy Summer. SuZ

I really like this one. Very descriptive of the fun families can have in the good old summertime. It is good that we once again can get out. It has been a long year + of being held in our homes except for just doing what was absolutely necessary. Thanks for your visit to my page. Sara

And some people are watering the garden... in the rain... in June. I’m reporting you to trading standards, Tom. Smashing write (even if it is merely a slice of history) and clever use of the asterisk to illustrate the Sun. Terry
