Summer Moments

Summer is a series
of moments
close to
the heart.

Summer is a sequence
of warm delicate breezes.
Summer is the pitcher,
filled with cool ice tea.

Summer is the warm wind,
sweeping everything along in it's wake
Summer is the tide,
as it meets land
when the sun sets;
oblivious to the happy faces.

Summer is justice
for all afraid
of the cold, forlorn
nights of winter
and it's ways.

What is summer
some might ask
summer is a rose in bloom,
beautiful and sweet

Summer is a lake
full of
memories
cool and clear

Summer is a sailboat
floating past
a lighthouse
atop a shore of rocks.

Summer is a flower
fading into autumn
all who see her go
wait for the season once more.

this one seamed different somehow.
Keep writing, maybe on a different season next time.

I liked it! You missed a few punctuation marks, but those are easy to fix.

I thought this poem was beautiful.
I really visualized summer in my mind.
You got just the right touch of softness in this poem that I felt was needed.

I felt warm reading it.
None of your ryhmes felt forced and it was all very music-like and rythmical.

If you always write like this, you are headed for some great things! :D:D

All the other parts only uses the word summer once. In these two parts you use it more than once. It just bugs me. Doesn't really go with the form of this. Using the word 'summer' once per part. You don't really have to change it.


Other than that well done. I liked it. ^_^
