Poetry From The Summer Garden
The Summer Garden
Vibrant,
every colour under the sun.
Bursting with pride,
exuberant ballroom gowns of frills and flounce.
She’s a Débutante,
she flirts and dances
with the breeze;
laughs and lifts her face
to taste the gentle rain.
Violet eyes of Summer skies,
long flowing, bouncing curls
the colour of burnished gold.
Petticoat swirls…
and bringing with her
joyous days and sultry nights.
Voluptuous promises.
Bold
Hot and heady
Her Lovers delight.
Summer returns.
