Summer Pleasure

S ummer is just the grandest time of year; U nending times of fun and merriment, M asses of lovely flowers, heaven sent M oments of wonderment are everywhere, E arly mornings, the lovely sights appear. R iveting colors in a wild ascent. P ainted on mountaintops without relent L oveliness so rich I can only stare. E ver deeper reds radiate in sky A nd I am fascinated by the show. S un is now shining brightly all around. U nimpressed by the beauty from on high R obins keep right on pecking for they know E asy breakfasts are waiting to be found. For "The Sonnet Man's Acrostic Challenge"

Dear Joyce, how true that although the beauty of nature in summer astonishes us, the robins seem "unimpressed." This is a lovely acrostic for the challente, Joyce. Hope to see you at the top again and also want to wish you a Happy Mother's Day. Hope all goes well during your stay with your brother. If you have no computer access and feel like you wish to chat, send me his phone number and I'll call you this week. Love, Carolyn
