Summer's Song. Poem by Fay Slimm
Summer's Song.
Awakened, we will,
Along the rill of summer's edge,
Find the glory of sound.
Light of foot, treading
On airy, hallowed, woodland ground,
We sense summer pledging
Our delight. We may,
By not straying far, hear striking
A stone with shell, the thrush,
Breakfasting. Or catch
The twitter of chicks in rushes,
Being fed. Trout rising,
Resonate the stream
With rippled trills. A blackbird sings
Nearby and thrills the air,
And seed pods explode.
Summer sings loud, and we, sharing
By ear, hear hidden things.
Finely chosen diction with jingling music in the background filigreed images from the Nature's best in summer. CP

An enchanting, magical celebration of nature's beauty with images flashing in and out of all its glory. 10 Karin Anderson

invited in to your woodland scene, dappled lighted by rippling stream quiet of foot and ears strained, the forest creatures yet untamed bird song, mayflies, a croaking frog, a thousand miles from city smog at one with natures wondrous treasures, thank you Lord for simple pleasures Thank you Fay, lovely poem, regards Bob
