Beautiful the sunshine's glow
On a gentle summer`s day
Bringing joy to every heart
With all sadness chased away
All the birds across the land
Play in ever gay delight
Flutt`ring through the leafy trees
Singing sweet farewells to night
Flowers bloom in full display
O so beauteous to our eyes;
Verdant fields spread far and wide -
Cotton clouds in azure skies
Noon-time shadows softly fade
`Neath the sun so high above;
All earth`s creatures dance and play
Full embraced in nature`s love
Summertime, O summertime
Splendid be your aspect fair
Bearing gladness in your train -
Joy to all who linger there
That`s the marvel of your U.K as summer sets in Valerie... The poets from Asia have proved themselves to be careless about that! For us summer is very hot and it is the time our rivers go slender, lakes shallow and our birds and animals too hunt for drinking water... Your thoughts are applicatively superb and we feel proud of your landscape in Valerie. But we in India just often cry, oh! summer, oh! summer and no lines flow forth....
Val, once again, you have brought such a delightful and colorful feeling with your words and descriptions so perfectly chosen. I love nature and esp. summertime, and you have definitely captured the wonderful feeling of it here. Thank you for sharing.
How the Poet paints with word: Feeling, images, sounds, it's magic. Loved your Smmer's Delight poem, SF
The love of nature in a wonderful season, so briightly and excellently expressed in very melodious verses. A big 10
Wordsworthian Scribe! any poem about season or nature has an indulgent pleasure of its own... and you have done justice with your images...
A part of the seasonal cycle we can all enjoy. Another gem for the treasure trove.
