Summer's Dulcet Rhythm

~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~ Coo, coo, coo Tweet, tweet, tweet A symphony so sweet, A bark, a lark Splash, splash, splash Screams so shrill A lad yells "Cannon ball!!" Caaawooosh! Trickle, drip, trickle Katydid's musical call Thick humid air Tree frogs, pray for rain To cool their scorching skin ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~ The sounds of a summer day, morning to evening. Inspired by a contest by Laura Mckenzie, Sounds of summer.
