Notes About The Poem

summer showers umbrella paraguas amarillo yellow

- Summer Shower -

Summer set the dewy grass

                            Through my castle I pass

                         The sweet scent of the flowers

                        Bare feet dancing in the showers

Great imagery. As you pass through your castle and get your feet wet in the rain. We don't get much rain here in the desert so I'm usually walking on hot sand. Wondrful poem Anne-Lise.

It would be a real joy to be barefooted dancing in the rain, Anne-Lise! I believe your ideal castle would be a large open field filled with colorful, fragrant flowers! ~ I also love the accompanying picture in which bright yellow takes pride of place. Hugs // paul
