Summer Simplicity

The east rises glory and it gently sweeps my face,
   the fields of yellow caress my eyes with simplicity.
      Strawberries and watermelon juicy as a candy-pops,
         I hear the June bugs titter-tatter and I drown in felicity.

I truly loved this one. The imagery is delightful. I only put it a bit lower because of the uneven syllable count. BIG congrats in my contest.
