A lovely sonnet telling you how much I appreciate summer.
Oh to live in the pulse of the sun and feel blessed
and smell the sweet scent of a flower's in-chide
to inhale all the power of summer's attest
and exhale it towards God's ambrosial tide
To bathe in the peace of the stars during night
and flow with the light of the dawn like a kite;
To course through the heavens and never lose sight,
one must sound out the trumpet of summer's respite;
To dream by the oak and awake by the sea
when August has ripened and turned Jubilee
you must enter dominion of summer's delight
and live in the rapture of candescent light
Oh to live and to love one must first learn to kiss,
the kinetics of summer, with eternal bliss.
A nice message. Uniquely you. Food for thought. There are four types of Sonnets. Italian. English (or Shakespearean) Miltonic. Spenserian. This piece seems to mirror more the Spenserian - three quatrains and a couplet. Where you vary is in your rhyme scheme. Yours: ABAB-AAAA-AABB-AA ... Authentic Spenserian would be ABAB-BCBC-CDCD-EE. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful. I’d like to live where there is summer all the time.

You have such a delicate inspirational muse and prolific vibe in your center heart that radiates light in hope Vienna. I am so touched inward. Your ability to bring depth to the reader is so much of a balm of revival in anticipation , friend ):
