Summer’s song for sorrows
is summer showers,
For all her enjoyment, she sows
flowers;
Thunder’s roar shows
Her rages,
Blue Ocean bestows
the love affairs she engages;
Summer sings soft with a
shooting star,
For a treat she grabs a
Cooking jar;
Dancing she goes to
a camping ground,
Smiling she heads to
a merry-go-round;
Emerging with a hot sun,
Painting the earth golden as she’s done.
Summer’s songs linger at summer seas,
Summer’s poets ponder with hot gazes.

Summer should always be like that – lovely! 🙂
For a treat she grabs a cookie jar..very sweet! 🙂

Love the last line–hot gazes burn memories deep 🙂
Whirling words woven delightfully. Nice one, Jingle!
Even in such hot weather, this poem makes me want to live outside in summertime. Such a clear image is formed in my mind when I read this. Excellent!
Groovy summertime.

Thank you!

OH, SUMMER IS HERE! HOW I MISS JINGLE. THANKS FOR SHARING
A summer song as the year turns – I might go south with the swallow.
Very nice feel of summer which somehow I think I missed this year because of the drought and too late came the rains.
Always enjoy your additions to the Parking Lot. Know I am suppose to go to 18 different poets but I landed back on yours because of luck. Was just taking the odd links
awesome summer poem really enjoyable
Light , flowing & laid-back …. sounds delightful
it’s winter for me and I’m freezing this side of the world …
What a lovely summer treat. We’d better enjoy it now before it bows down to autumn. 😉
Thanks, Ji for visiting. I appreciate it.
Summer time flows here. Nice write.
Breathtaking and magical Jingle! Beautiful imagery and this line is my favourite “For all her enjoyment, she sows flowers;”. Well written 🙂
Summertime and the living is easy…
Hi, Jingle! I took a bit different look at the line above, and would have written, “For all her thundery showers, she sows flowers.” But that’s my take. I like yours as well.
What a lovely trip you take us on with this one, Jingle. I can really relate to those poet’s hot gazes at the end– let’s grab it all now when it’s here– there’s got to be at least a jillion poems in it!!
Loved this summer theme (:
Interesting one!
Lyrical composition and justifying the title very well too..the image and your work compliment each other just perfect! 🙂
Alcina
I like the playful tone of the poem. 🙂
so much delight! and so I wish with the shooting star 🙂
Oh, I love summer! Beautiful song 🙂
Very beautifully written!
“Summer’s song for sorrows
is summer showers,
For all her enjoyment, she sows
flowers” I love these opening words, the intricate balance… there are always both showery and flowery times in live and even migled in one season, and it’s the presence of both which reminds us how alive we are, and isn’t summer such an alive time of year? xx
Nice to know you view summer with much delight.Very wonderful and thanks for sharing 🙂
if not for seasons, what topic would a poet continue to return to time and time again?
summer is too lovely to dismiss.
Beautiful poem Ji!
What a beautifully written piece! It makes me yearn for summer. 🙂
a lovely summer dance. the imagery is amazing. 🙂 thanks for sharing.

Beautiful summer poem, even if I am a lover of winter. Loved the rhythm of this poem.
The Lonely Recluse.

Summer brings such glories– thanks for the postcards!
Beautiful poem. Thanks for the reminder that summer showers bring beautiful flowers. 🙂
Ah, your summer poem is a lot more uplifting than mine, I should try to do a summery dance like this! Great work!
“For a treat she grabs a cooking jar.”
Light, springy I love the word play throughout this. It made me smile.
Wonderful Summer poem, brings back memories of my young summers.
Love that summer imagery…takes me to the light and airy summer times that I love at the beach and with friends
Sweet!
This feels so youthful and bright. This poem is summer when I was a kid.
Ah, summer! Lovely emotions! The sight of blue ocean and sunshine …
