lazy summer days
lying in a hammock 
no deep thoughts for me


Lazy Summer Days

The trees clap hands as the birds gaily sing
The hope and joy that the new day will bring.
The redwing blackbird in the cattails hymns.
The fish keeps beat time as it jumps and swims.

Above clouds swim past in an ocean blue.
The sun warms the green grass and melts the dew.
The honeybees whiz past on their business
Passing by flowers in their accismus.

It is a good day to drift in the grass
And watch dainty butterflies as they pass.
Out in the tall grass the grasshoppers buzz.
The wind blows past the dandelion fuzz.

I remove the stalk of grass from my teeth
And dozing, pillow my head on the heath.
I have not a care in the world it seems
And my mind is only filled with good dreams.

Summer Fun

A warm summer sun
one eyed dog yawn’s and stretches—
Old man starts snoring

Premium MemberLazy Day In the Sun

It was a lazy lie around in the summer sun day for the farm 
The kittens curled up next to the dog, the pig came from the barn.
Famer and his wife were busy getting the crops ready to harvest.
No one seemed to notice the animals on their slumber quest.
This is the place to sleep thought the kittens, as they curled up.
Loving the sun’s rays, which brought their temperatures up.
The dog allowed everyone to sleep around him on this day.
And the pig was glad to finally get away from scratchy hay.

ripples in crowfoot 
swan goes with the flow

Premium MemberSummer Gradually

Summer, and the sunglow hours are creeping, so slowly by
with red ruby treasures, waiting placidly, all day in the sky
But, twilight finally ends, with the perfume of black blooms

Lazy Afternoon

LAZY AFTERNOON

Heady with scented freshness,
The drowsily flowing river
Glides through a sun-skimmed 
Summer's simmering day - 

As outpoured wine to be savoured,
Together with the static, fevered tones
Of a hot, unquenchable breeze,

Slow-meandering in its languid state,
Unhurried by the lazy afternoon's stillness,

Spent in the somnolent embrace
Of a weighted, swaying hammock,
Where the beat of time seems suspended.

Lazy Afternoon

Strawberry daylight
Sun streaming through window sills
Bathing in the warmth

Premium MemberCreeping

The shadows were creeping like golden summer,
Upon arising covertly, from crimson dawn mists,
And they shrank at noon to a realm just under,
Then idly resumed, their daring sunshine risks,
'Til plum twilight, and a kingdom they'd missed!

Premium MemberHazy, Lazy, Crazy Days of Summer

Hot, humid, hazy
Weather's driving me crazy
Making me lazy

Need a draft of cool
To rejuvenate this fool
Roll out the barrel

No draft of cool air
Roll out the barrel of beer
Draft of ale my dears!

So my health won't fail
Lift up your glasses my friends
Toast each other, cheers!

Premium MemberLazy River

it's the end of Summer
so the river level is down.
You can walk straight across it now
with little risk that you'll drown.

Right now it's a lazy river
meandering to the sea
but come the early Spring
a raging river it'll once more be.

In Summer months we swim there
creating memories with friends.
Living our very best lives,
hoping it never ends.

But today as Summer wanes
and Fall is on the way
I'll walk across the river and
enjoy this peaceful day.

I am getting older so
it may be the last time for me
to wander across the river
as it slips out to the sea.

Premium MemberSummer's Lazy Netting

Oh each summer one sport ever calls
Though my energy always just stalls
For I'm not but a menace
Playing hot, sweaty tennis
Just knocking the fuzz off old balls ...

So, how slothful can one hot guy be
In a hammock beneath a palm tree
Where all summer, I'll swing
Paying some goose to bring
The fresh ice for my Long Island Tea.

Lazy Summer

The water looks lovely but deep,
Just to paddle I maybe could creep,
But alone on the beach,
For the sea I can’t reach,
Cos I’d just rather lie here and sleep.

I’ll put up a sign “do not disturb”,
My laziness ought I to curb?
I can dream up some plans,
For some exploring fans,
But adventure’s a noun, not a verb!

Premium MemberPlight of a Lazy Man

There was a lazy, bald-headed man
Felt sunny day like a frying- pan 
Put him up to his nest
Put his work off to rest
Got bump on head due to fallen fan.
