Summer Dreams

by Auspicious76   Jul 5, 2007


In summer fields of grassy hills
Where flowers bloom and sparrows trill
And heaven's touched by sunny leaves-
I lay beneath a cloud of dreams.

A whisper's heard from distant nook
Of sighing reeds and bustling brook-
Of cricket song and birds on wing
As gentle wind their stories bring.

The sweet caress of perfumed scent
Brings days of joy and laughter spent
When, as a child, I often played
Till dusky sky and sun would fade.

The rustled song of leafy trees
Lulls my heart with laughing pleas
To close my eyes, to join the dream,
Safe beneath their bowered leaves.

So closing eyes now full of sleep,
I pray the clouds my dreams to keep
Of grassy hills in summer fields
Where flowers bloom and sparrows trill.

    Aw.....okay time to be serious-I shouldn't joke about being serious...I found the imagery quite well done. This is definitely an interesting write about nature and one that I enjoyed reading. Flow's smoothly and progresses well. Some choice words that heighten the imagery. Nicely done...seems to give off a calming effect if that makes sense.
