Summer came in on the wisp of a wind,
sunshine and sweet warm breezes begin.
Soft velvet starlit nights shine aglow,
spread across Summer sky's in celestial show.
Floral profusions and lawns of green grass,
outdoor excursions enjoyed by us at last.
Cookouts and swimming in cool fresh streams,
faces all smiling so happy and beaming.
Summer time and the living is so easy,
lifts my spirit,I become light and breezy.

Could not help but edit this fine poem, good and lilting as it is. Hope you don`t mind my trying to make it even better.
Spread across Summer sky`s celestial show./ Outdoor excursions enjoyed by us at last./Cookouts and swimming in cold water streaming/Faces all smiling so happy and beaming/ That`s my two bits worth. William. By the way I am not sure if your title is meant to be Summer Solace or Summer Solstice. Thinking about it, probably the former. Cheers. -
Oh how I wish it was still summer here in Australia. A beautiful poem, superbly written. Thanks so much for this entry... x

My favorite season is summer, for I was born in it and its weather suits me well. YOu have written this piece with much detailed imagery, great flow, and pure talent! I think that cookouts is a compound word, so you might want to do some editing there(S2L3). Otherwise, you did a great job at creating this masterpiece! Good luck in the contest and may your writing flourish!

This is a very nicely written summer poem Suseanna
Nice flow and choice of words and use of many 's' beginning words.. it gives a nice alliteration.
Keep on writing and good luck in the contest.
