Indeed a Serenade To Summer with fine words shown by picture images as the poem is read thanks for the invite...regards
This is a great tribute to summer, a season we all enjoy. Great write and thanks for the invite. I love the rhythem and rhyming of this poem. Good Job.
What a great poem! You have written some very fine lines here, TMA, and lovely images and texture. Very nice indeed.10
The last verse takes off in the finest of poetry-'The sky sings to the earth--'.. Cliff Richard had a hit with 'Here comes Summer' but both of us wrote serenades to summer. I wrote mine many years ago and it's in my first collection 'Droving' so you have brought back good memories to me as well as entertaining me with a very nice love poem.10.
It is a lovely serenade....I quite like it. You described the beauty of summer well all through. But since the Word of God compares the distance of the heavens from the earth like this....Ps 103: 11 'For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him.' I am inclined to think the two shall never embrace.....but for you and your love, I do hope you may soon unite forever.
