cattails and daisies blow in the breeze butterflies flit about while birds sing in trees frogs leap on lily pads honey bees buzz around dragonflies go whizzing by as ants march along a small brook is babbling a wide river roars fluffy clouds go sailing by a mighty eagle soars sunny rays on summer days soak up early dew honeysuckle fills the air and mourning doves coo the willow is weeping while whippoorwills sing by the waterfalls in the forest the fairy bells ring |

I like this! It dances right off the page, and makes me want to run around outside and immerse myself in Nature. |

This is SO enchanting! I love the images and sounds in it. Wonderfully written!!  A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |

I'm so pleased that this poem was received so well by all of you. I happen to love this poem myself and read it when I want to recapture the magic of the summer days of my childhood. Love, Light & Laughter Linda |

Yes, yes, I do like it, lots! Lovely, scrumptious summer images. You know, if you select "200 poems per page at the top" this was only on page 2, not so far back, that way. Of course then there's only 3 pages total. Now, though, it is back to page one at the top for you!  Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

MidniteSon---Exactly! That is exactly what I wanted you to feel like. I love nature and its beauty it seen through the eyes of children. In this case, my inner child! Linda |
