Poetry: Summer

by Mary Straniero

Created on: April 18, 2009

Summer

The heat of the summer sun

warming my body

the afterglow of afternoon play

relaxing after a fun filled day

the smell of a barbeque starting

in the yard

salads, greens and potatos

icecream sodas and ripe tomatos

Lazy days and starlite nights

oh how I love summer so much

gazing at the moon

floating in a pool at noon

humming a favorite tune

laughing until your stomach hurts

Hugging and smiling, kissing

and trying to stop from

crying, cause you'e laughing so much

Days of wonder, awe and

thunder, buttefly bushes and

summer showers

fragrant scents of blooming flowers

love and children

and moments as such

these are the days of summer

I love so much.
