This picture, drawn last march, was first piece of many
pieces in my pastel phase. J
When I gave it to my friend, I
promised to share with her the motivation behind it. Hopefully, I have captured that feeling in my poem.
Summer sun glistening
Gleeful feet dancing
The sweet scent of wild flowers
The feeling of Joy
Happy children
laughing
Jump ropes and hop scotch
Ice Cream Man music
The feeling of delight
Cat tails and dandelions
Morning
glories and lilacs
Hot dogs and lemonade
The feeling of glee
Butterflies and bullfrogs
Climbing trees, Hide-N-Seek
Sprinklers and hoses
The feeling of summer
The perfect summer, thanks
