Ode to Summer

ByNathaniel B.
Summer Solstice PoemsPagan Summerland Poem
Sun-kissed days,
laughter rings clear.
Waves lap shores,
memories dear.

Grass underfoot,
bare, joyful toes.
Night's soft cloak
where firefly glows.

Ice cream drips,
down smiling chins.
Sunsets paint skies,
when warmth sinks in.

Season of light,
of vibrant hue.
Summer, we live
each moment through.
Sun-Kissed Shore

    February Rain

    ByNathaniel B.

    Winter’s grasp, a gentle sigh,February rain beneath gray sky.Drops dance on cobblestones sweet,Melody where sky and earth meet.Each drop a memory, seasons gone,Promise of spring in winter’s song.Bare branches washed in grace,Rain adorns the world’s embrace.Fields stir beneath the veil,Raindrops serenade, over hills sail.Whisper through meadows, kiss the land,Rain, a painter’s gentle hand.
