Summer Alouette 2

Smell the summer air
Blowing everywhere
Drying up the drops of rain.
In this seasons breeze
Wheat fields grow with ease
Barley, corn and sugar cane.

Sun is beating down
Warming up the ground.
Dandelion seeds float free.
Wild flowers with grace
Daisy’s happy face,
Waiting for a date with bee.

I just adored yours!!! I marked it down for the dandelion line. My syllable counter put that word at three. But just now I saw another counter that let lion count as two separate syllables. Sorry. This should have been a third place. It's so cute. Congrats in my contest.
