For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Leaves are dancing on the trees,
Swirling, twirling with the breeze.
On each leaf the sun does shine,
Beauty that is yours and mine.
Branches twisting here and there,
Birds are singing everywhere.
Water sparkles in the sun,
Bringing joy to everyone.
The flashing sun through the leaves,
As they flutter in the breeze,
Beauty that does softly call,
Peacefulness to one and all.

You weaved a visual picture through your words. Beautiful poem.

Thank you very much Eugenia! That means a lot coming from such a good poet! Don’t think I would like storms that often. We are getting them a lot more often than we used to though, and this summer it is supposed to be a lot of severe thunderstorms right through till the end of August, very unusual for us! Have a wonderful day Eugenia!ππΊπββ

We are supposed to have a very up and down summer with temps and very severe thunderstorms all summer which will give us more than average rainfall. Everything is so wet right now, we need some drying weather for a week or so. My poor flowers!π³πββπΊπΌ
