Summer

I bathe in your pool of magnificent radiance,
Many come and go to the beach to rest their souls,
I travel there to feel the salty warm breeze in-between my toes ,
Glorious beaming light heading from the far blue sky ,

Oh, this lightness of spirit makes me want to fly!
Summer gently pushes pleasant feelings towards my heart,
Swimming in a rich blue sea,
Diving down to the blushing coral reef,

Twirling in the grassy sand dunes feeling the tickling sensation of it pinching me,
The hot winds breathing at your face in the night,
Hearing the splashing and crashing of the waves,
Beaches’ salty waters reaching for your feet,
What more could a person ever want?

Nature named this beautiful miracle summer.
