Slowly Summer

/ Kait King

Spring into Summer

With drifting tendrils

of Spring

Summer curls her way into

places where shadows hang around

with a Wintery gruffness

A warmth travels –

infrequently

flying through

the trees and grasses

with just a tease

of what’s to come

Sky of blue and spring rains fall

the fluttering tweets

and grassy delights of the

new nesting families hurrying along

Spring’s lazy gait

  8. Spring came early, makes me wonder if winter will come again, after all the heavy rain has flooded areas not prone to flooding and submerged areas which are. The temperature can’t keep rising, can it? Love the poem as always and it made me think, thank you for that my wonderful Kait xoxo

    • Yes I’ve noticed the birds desperately building their nests for about the third time and it’s still chilly but we are supposed to be in the throes of Summer – weird…and wonderful I guess, it’s what the Earth has been doing forever and there is absolutely nothing we can do about it – something mankind cannot control! 😉 You are most welcome Dave, I thank you for reading my work – thank you thank you thank you, from the bottom of my heart 🙂 xoxo
