My Favorite Month … Poem by Theresa Ann Moore

You joyfully arrived early this morning grinning with delight
June… you are my most favorite month for many reasons
Your presence brings cheers as frigid nights take flight
Your warmth and gentle ways start the summer season

Flats of flowering plants stand in rows starving for attention
Freshly tilled gardens anticipate and welcome new friends
A transformation is taking place…it is an inviting dimension
Children give you a huge embrace as the school year ends

Freshly mowed lawns reveal green scented carpets around town
Dogs with their owners stroll in the park near the free flowing river
Sunglassed drivers absorb the breeze with convertible tops down
June… you never let us frown…you certainly know how to deliver

Beautiful brides are ready to realize a perfectly planned wedding
Baseball fans are visualizing scores leading to the World Series
Eager participants rush forward knowing where they are heading
The future is filled with promise … eliminating any doubtful theories
