Early summer day

 Today is hot as  you can tell,

So I love you twice as well.
One for joy and one for grief,
Happy time is yet a thief.

The sun is glowing like hot coals.

Words dart through  my mind in shoals.
Let a power within my mind
Shape sentences   that weave and bind.
The sky is   bright as bluey teal,
In the colour ,  heart’s  revealed   .
I love reverie in poppy fields,
Until  this mind a poem yields.
 Dreams nightly so full of colour,
Green  of  hedges, cornfields yellow.
Limbs relax as I lie there,
At last a summer  new and fair.

Again we’ll see the daisies flower,
The apple blossom’s like a shower.
We soon forget  our wintry woes,
As round our doors, red roses grow.

Replete with blooms and  burned with sun
I’ll find my autumn time has come.
And grateful for the flowers  I  see,
I’m ever thankful just to be.
