Poem Artwork


the smell of cut
grass is one of
life's sweetest scents.

summer --- a
season of
song.  birds in
the morning,
Katydids
and locusts
serenade
afternoons.
at night, frogs
and crickets.

red:  watermelons,
exposed shoulders and
a summer sunset.

High humidity, intense heat, violent thunder storms, that is summer. It is also my favorite season. Fresh cut grass, is there a more exciting aroma in nature? It smells like life in love with the earth. May peace love and joy be with you today my dear friend. Jon Michael

I like summer, except the muggy days like today. Can't breathe out there, here in NH. Great descriptions, Karla!

Colors and smells of summer. Fresh cut grass smells even better if you can get the neighbor kid to do it for you. Patrick
