Summer Is Here Poem by Sandra Martyres

Summer is here in our midst
The trees are dressed up again
From my special vantage point
I see a profusion of yellow,
Purple, pink and white flowers
Amid different types of leaves
All paying homage to the Sun

Down, closer to the ground
Periwinkles seem to twinkle
While the roses in full bloom
Spread their delicate perfume
Nearby the pansies and the phlox
Seem to be vying with each other
For a place in the little flower beds

Tweeting birds are perched in the trees
Beautiful butterflies keep flitting by
With little boys trying to catch them
In this bright and happy atmosphere
Both the old and young stay outdoors
Enjoying nature's glorious moments
On a near perfect summer's day
