Summer Time

Sunshine feels fine
On this icy skin of mine

Bright light into the night
birds singing late on

I look out the window for
the beautiful dawn.

On with the shorts
sun tan and shades.

Schools out kids shout
summer time is here.

Mowing the lawn carrying on.
Water fights late at night.

Butterfly's in your hair
Bumble bees every where.

Rocking in my favorite chair
Watching the sun go down.

Beautiful colors every where
No time for sorrow or despair.

Holidays swimming in the sea
family together with you and me.

Sand in between your toes.
Ice cream up your nose.

Little kids crying for a sleep
time for a nap into bed we creep.

In a list

    Its a good piece, each couplet is done with about the same rhyme, pretty cool indeed. I like all the images you have shared, its almost as if you grow with the summer, its pretty well done. Good job. Good luck in this contest.

    This is really a calming piece to read.

    My favorite lines:

    Sunshine feels fine
    On this icy skin of mine

    Bright light into the night
    birds singing late on

    I look out the window for
    the beautiful dawn.

    On with the shorts
    sun tan and shades.

    It is summer time in my country that is why I apprecite the lines so much. We only have 2 seasons: Rainy and Summer.

    Thanks for sharing and see you around.

    simple poem

    its cheerful and full of life, but I think you should review your own poem before entering, there are a few spots that should be checked in this.
    again very cheerful, and summery just review it a little bit.
