Summer’s reckless with its love of green.
The sky gives blue so bright it goes unseen.
We breathe each day enclosed in soothing light
While night awaits with stars and dark between.

A lovely soothing poem, Frank.
Thank you, Jane!

I always loved summer when we lived in rural Iowa. And actually fall too. And then when I think about it, to see the white new fallen unmarked snow on the hills was divine. Ah…but I’ve been a city girl now since ’97. You took me back there! 😉
I love those warm snowfalls with the ground white and the trees thick with white. Thank you, Lillian!
Oh I do love the way you have described the summer… for me this is only August… now we have some dark nights… I actually sit outdoors in dusk at the moment.
It is a nice time of year, but every time of year has something to say for it. Thank you, Bjorn!
Lovely poem. Quietly beautiful, like those fields of green.
They are a deep green now. Thank you, Toni!
You are becoming the Master of Brevity; nice form. with aaba rhyme. I am feeling much better these days, but taking a long time to getting up the strength to get out and walk. I sit on the deck a lot & embrace the summer.
I hope you feel better to be able to walk again, Glenn. Best wishes and thank you!
How beautiful, Frank: ‘Summer’s reckless with its love of green’!
I am glad you liked that line, Kim! Thank you!
A beautiful poem Frank, I especially love how ‘The sky gives blue so bright it goes unseen’ :o)
We often miss some of the obvious beauty around us or take it for granted. Thank you, Xenia!
Wonderfully serene poem, Frank! 😊
Thank you, Sanaa!
Your first line is wonderful!
I am glad you liked that line. Thank you, Jo!
a definite landscape capture …. and isn’t it interesting, how that brilliant sky blue does become so blinding for intensity it literally seems white? And I love that first line – summer’s recklessness with its love of green – that is so true and apparent in the right settings.
lovely poem Frank – cheers!
Thank you, Pat! I am glad you liked these!
