Summer time fantasia
Sun beaming gumdrops onto the season's pixies of truth
Affectionately dancing to gingerly giggles upon my tingly skin
Cotton clouds of powder puff and gentle sweet breezes too
Tantalizingly chasing, as they merrily join up with these magical jinns
The lilacs and the wildflowers overwhelming with jealousy come in right on their cue
With aromas intoxicating the faeries fun, makes my head out of control spin
Within backward plunges into such soothing fresh pools
Of tall, cool, serene and blades of deep green …summer time fantasias
The renaissance of summer comes alive giving nature her due!
With the splendors and the spoils all trapped deep within
The skies that swirl and fountains which swath with pastel baby blues
And I am her willing accomplice never wanting of grandeurs to end
Jet stream buzzing ebonies of yellowish honey hues
Butterflies fluttering with a tip of the hat, but where a wink and a nod is meant
To pursuing visions flying out of the woodland and meadow afternoons
That bake upon the songbirds singing, serenading out until their hearts content
Evening melodies begin weaving around the loons and then the jitterbugs of this June
Why next July then August can I only visit these my dearest friends?
My backyard is a paradise, where eagles dare, but leave soon too
And the imps of mid season pack up their smiles and pick up their colors and wilds, to begin traveling off to where the summers never end
