Summer Breeze

lyrics written as per contest rules to the melody of 'Summer breeze' by Seals and Croft Verse 1 Lying in a lush and verdant meadow Nature’s sweet aromas start to set me free. Honeybees are pollinating clover Mellow sounds of summer sweeping over me. Chorus Summer breeze, cares left behind Perfect place to let my thoughts unwind. Summer breeze, breathes unconfined Blows away the cobwebs in my mind. Verse 2 Summer haze is shimmering before me And above me cotton wool clouds drift by Butterflies in iridescent glory Soaring skylarks serenade the azure sky. Chorus Summer breeze, cares left behind Perfect place to let my thoughts unwind. Summer breeze, breathes unconfined Blows away the cobwebs in my mind. (missed deadline for contest: summer breeze)

Wendy this is fantastic, however, somehow it never got entered into my contest, would have placed high for sure, one of the best I've seen!

Never mind. I did edit it after the initial submission but wouldn't have thought that that would have affected the entry process. Your kind feedback and this new catchy tune to hum along to is more important than a virtual trophy! Thank you so much for your encouragement. Best wishes Wendy
