Freedom with the heat
Music, constant beat
Summer is hip-hop or rock
Swaying to the notes
Minus all the coats
Watch the sun set on the dock
Season with no stress
No jeans, just a dress
Nothing that will hold you back
Except love, friendships
Miss to kiss your lips
And to touch your hair, jet-black
The season of love
I think the world of
'Cause now our love really shines
Summer, what a view!
Never a need to,
Read between the lines
Author notes
The AlouetteThe Alouette, created by Jan Turner, consists of two or more stanzas of 6 lines each, with the following set rules: Meter: 5, 5, 7, 5, 5, 7 Rhyme Scheme: a, a, b, c, c, bThe form name is a French word meaning 'skylark' or larks that fly high, the association to the lark's song being appropriate for the musical quality of this form. The word 'alouette' can also mean a children's song (usually sung in a group), and although this poetry form is not necessarily for children's poetry (but can be applied that way), it is reminiscent of that style of short lines.
