Awe I worship summer too! Bring on the heat and the wildness of growing things and rejoice! Great read - I felt it.

Love this verse!
losing myself in soil
our mingling roots a sacrament for
hosting bees and butterflies

I think this was a great poem. It makes you feel the yearning for the surroundings of nature in it's prime. The things we miss out on and complain about even when it's just winter to be calmed by the beauty from the return of the birds and flowers. Great Job!

I really have come to enjoy every moment nowadays in comparison to the past. I think this is somewhat what you are saying in this poem. We just don't know if we have another week, month or year. The moment to enjoy nature is now. And it is thundering and I love the sound. It used to frighten me but no more. I am so glad it was just a scare. Take care deary.

Hello Caroline and I hope your feeling well these days. I really enjoyed your writing, you clearly have a lot of talent. Your poem reminded me of free verse category, am I right? I envy your ability to write this way, it is something I am longing to do and can't get it right! Good descriptive images, I was right there with you.

Thanks, Dawn--It is free verse. I couldn't do a rhyme, a quatrain....if my salvation depended on it! Caroline
