New Poem, Sitting on the lawn.



Sitting on the lawn.

 An unfinished poem   By A.M.Donaghey 

Heavenly scented summer breeze, grassy carpet of outdoor leisure
On drowsy days of lemonade, and effervescent pleasure
Dandelions and camomile, stipple through a vale of green
Grass with seed and flower heads, all weighting for a preen
Taste of sweetness, summer fruits, that tantalize the tongue
and coolness ice cubes in your mouth, that almost quench the sun
Shadows of the summer leaves that swirl an flicker through the air
moments, minutes and hours pass by, and all with out a care
Singing birds and buzzing bees, insects on the wing
Dream like in this warmth of light, and memories that they bring
How id love to be there now, feel that summer breeze of pleasure
On those drowsy days of lemonade , the childhood times I treasure 

As it is coming into September and we are seeing the last few days of our Irish summer, I thought I would try and finish a poem that I started writing last year. As always, I am not 100% sure if it is fully finished and I may re write it in the future.

As always, thank you for reading my blog and please feel free to comment if you wish,
