The warm sun should be taken in moderation, so you won't get too much. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a good read.

Sitting here waiting for the weather to warm up as April draws nearer to May it is hard to adjust to the thoughts of those whose world is a mirror image of are own. You'd better enjoy it whjile it is available.

How fun to read about a hot autumn day, while we enjoy a seasonable spring day here in California. Hey, personify the sun all you want, I'll never critique you for that! I used to love finding a place on the beach to sunbathe and read, and where we live now the water is warm enough (barely) to take a dip in the summertime. Oh, I hope you use sunscreen! :)

    Hi Carol, Yes it is unusual to have such lovely weather here at this time Late April. So I have to make the best of it. Yesterday my husband and me went for a motorbike ride and the weather was hot and the ride was great. Australian weather can be unpredictable at times 4 seasons in one day But i am making the most before Winter in June . Thanks for your review Cheers for a good day Christine😄

Just great I like how the poem is misleading thinking you are talking about a lover and then find out it's the sun. Great job on this, have a wonderful day

You have certainly succeeded at personification of the sun. It wasn't until that last stanza. Loved it. Words flow freely, good rhyme and rhythm, but best of all, you pulled me into a beautiful and sensual love story... until that last stanza. Thanks for sharing and warmest regards, Marijke :o)

    Hi Marijke, I am glad you liked my poem with a twist Ha Ha , I love to do different things and can be a little naughty at times but hopefully in good taste. Cheers for reading and reviewing Christine 😄

A sun lover. Well done. As the poem begins the reader is led to believe this is about lovers. It isn't until the last stanza we know it is about the sun and a sun bather or sun worship. The poem flows well and has a rhyming pattern. Thank you for sharing it with me. Have a great week. Kat

Hi, Christine

= Very nice, but I will admit, I thought you were talking about hubby with the sensuous overtones. (*<*)
= Doesn't matter, because I really like it.
= I turn red as a lobster. The sun is NOT my friend. I'll remain hiding behind my computer, thank you very much. I donate my share of the sun to you. (*<*)

And a very sensual sun indeed, puts a new outlook on "sun worship" Christine! Yes, we've also been having some sensational weather here as you have there, wherever one goes in the world Autumn is overlooked as the best, most stable season! Beautifully written Christine, your rhyming quatrains are so well crafted and even metered so to make you a legend. Sweet worded and uncontrived aabb rhyming, blessings, Roy
