L Milton Hankins Poet Villanelle

Summer Days

Summer days so bright and beautiful,
Lift our spirits and make us feel freer
We are happier, clearly indisputable.

Even the birds find summer suitable
For frolicking, and simply being here,
Summer days so bright and beautiful.

I am convinced warmth is immutable
With summer comes a change of gear,
We are happier, clearly indisputable.

Such an argument, I think irrefutable
I shall not expect ski-lovers to hear,
Summer days so bright and beautiful.

In colder climes, true, living is doable
When the warm glow of sun is near,
We are happier, clearly indisputable.

This is a matter that I find inscrutable
My argument is made with good cheer
Summer days so bright and beautiful
We are happier, clearly indisputable.

Wishful thinking on my part. Have a peaceful sunny day. Got your soup mail wrote a long response, when I sent it stated I had written too many words. Hope you got it all. There is a new blogger, I believe her name is Anaya. She did her first blog and she wants to Publish her work and she was asking advice on a Pubishing company. I thought you could help L Milton Hankins July 4, 2022 at 8:41 AM Thanks, Michael. I'll contact Anaya and see if she wants any information on the subject I might have. I'm not an expert on book publication at all, but I have learned a few things--especially cautions--over the years. Nice to see your concern for her. She's a nice lady. Michael Tor July 4, 2022 at 12:40 AM since you had your books Published. Just a thought, I am sure she would appreciate your help Sir...
