Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall
Why is Sumner such a short time,
just getting started then running into half past summer.
July seems to be the half way mark,
August is almost here.
August will turn into September then into October,
then fall will be here.
Fall with cooler days,
a pretty carpet of colorful leaves covering the ground....

It’s That Time of Year: It’s So Hot!There are four seasons every year on earth.
They are Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
The season now is like boiling water.
This season is mostly good for the plants.
Well, experts say that plants need much sunlight.
All living things need sunlight to live too.
It’s so hot, but need to get used to it.
Oh, the sun! The sun! The...

Song of the ThrushOh mirror of my soul where have you gone,
now that the forest wind has set you free?
Days grown long, yet the same sun tumbles on,
as a quiet Song thrush sings back to me.
Radio croons a song, in silky drawl..
of latticed roses in proper pink dress.
Meadow melody sung in summer squall,
and life's mystery left only to...

The Darkest NightEven the darkest night will end
And the sun will rise
Will you come to see me then
I’ll be quite surprised
Same as you - what an encounter
You would giggle at me
Love, it seems that I have found you
I’d reply to thee
The harsh reality, however
Extends that miserable night
Though the sun beats down like never
In its dazzling summer...

Summer HeatSun is seen a flaming ball in the sky,
Darting down pointed spears of smarting beams.
Horrid heat waves, from the smoked earth, rise high.
For drops of water, the thirsty earth screams.
The waterlogged piece of land has gone dry.
The soil is arid and left cracked and parched.
Drying crops have made farmers sadly sigh.
The once lush green...

Summer GleeSitting alone in the sun,
I reflect on the past,
Days filled with laughter and fun—
Oh, how time moves fast.
The radiant colours of the light,
There's a freshness that sunshine brings,
The clock ticks, and everything yields to twilight,
While memories soar on summer's wings.
The outdoors beckon us,
With children...

Morning GloryThe sun does rise; I open my eyes.
A new day has come; I stretch on my vine.
I spread myself to soak in the rays.
In quiet splendor, in silent praise.
A new day has come, I continue to bloom,
where I am planted, where I am true.
I follow the sun as it warms my face,
with its bright rays...

SUNSETSUNSET
golden sun sinks low
moon's pale crescent in the west
stars start to twinkle
silent forest deep
moon's soft light upon its trees
shadows stretch and yawn

Summer's Glow
pleading petals play gently in the sun
whispering joy across the sticky skin
summertime blessings cannot be outdone
however, autumn is her next of kin
praying roses and melancholic buds
remembering our heart’s tender healing
hanging in timeless ache of fair redbuds
season’s bliss lifts shadows who’re concealing
promising the night stars, moon and fireflies
rousing such beauty the skies come to life
only God...

False Sun
first love's false flame burned way too hot
and left me nothing but the want
for fiery passion to remain
to keep me bound in love's pleasure-pain
like chasing an addiction high
more and more but always just shy
I find that I am in a cage
I have lost this ancient war you waged
so injured, I then licked my wounds...

What the Sun SeesAs I rise,
The moon falls
The wind settles
The lake follows
The sand shimmers
The earth softens
The stars dampen and
The buildings brighten,
A tree houses
A bird swooshes
A flower opens
A fish swims
A weed dances
A squirrel eats and
A duck dips,
A man hurries to work
A woman runs on the boardwalk
A grandfather grabs the paper
A boy hides from me
A girl giggles on the...

Advice for a Sunny DayIf it is a sunny day,
why not while the hours away?
Take a peaceful walk or stroll.
You might find a friendly soul.
If you spy a dog or horse,
you should say "hello" of course....
