Summer Sunshine
Summer Sunshine
Summer sunshine feels different from spring,
Round – ripening and growing large –
Laying still, sunbeams tickle leaves and sing -
Seeing blueness across the sky enlarge.
Summer sunshine welcomes naps in hammocks
And seeps into the winter weary soul
Cloud shapes shift in the sky, panoramic,
And the scent of new cut grass to extol.
Summer sunshine writes of calm, sunlit lakes
Winding down, gathering, summer reading
The scent of suntan cream and sizzling steaks
Getting ready, watering and weeding.
Windows open as sunshine rushes in
Warm blessing from God’s hands like sacred hymns.
