Although I like all the season's. I really don't think there is a season that beats the summer when it comes to fun.

As the sunray's beam ~ through my sunroom's shades 
And the warmth of summer ~ slowly fades 
My old heart soothes ~ when flowers bloom 
Fireworks boom ~  in night parades
 
Songbirds singing ~ in backyard baths 
Children playing ~ out bursting laughs  
Ocean's beaches ~ morning boat rides 
Swimming, fishing ~ floating rafts
 
Four or "Fore" ~ an eighteen hole 
The groundhog's call ~ bless his soul 
His tale a myth ~ his truth be told
His course, of course ~ a summer's stroll
 
Priceless moments ~ in summer's sun 
Love it, enjoy it ~ so much fun 
Summer season ~ I do adore 
My favorite season ~ there be it none

Special moments that kindle the imagination and stir the heart are what make summer memorable and you capture that feeling well. Emile.

More or less the same poem in Rubaiyat form? Just as splendid, and a fave again Charlie....Maria hugs

Yes, I wrote the first one first and entered it into the contest. Someone informed me that it wasn't in Rubaiyat so I had to take it out and edit it. But I personally like my original one a little more. Thank you so much, Maria hugs Charlie
