Summer

The beach air had come to me
With its refreshing yet breezy sensation
The summer is just in the city
Have the fun in the earth’s heaven

Iced water and a bit of lemon, perhaps
Please hold this for me, thank you
The birds are building their nest
Is it a wonder of something new?

Pass the plain water trunk to me
I will swim the entire sea today
No, not to break a knee
Nor a strut for that fine quay

I wonder how an Olympic medallist dive
Or how the cyclist ride
It would a year maybe five
To practice my coordination and sight

The sunset had arrive
Look at the colour it shows
The swimmers had come to a take five
The meaning only He knows

It is a wonderful poem in which hope lives beside sense and sensibility in good rhymes and rhythm. The bit of the hearts together:both author and the reader. Best regards.
