Please Come Back Summer
A free verse poem
Please come back summer,
I miss the gentle touch
of sunshine and mist
on my arms and hands.
I want you back summer,
so I can take those lengthy walking trips
to the park without bundling up,
and feeling like a frozen monument.
Please come back summer,
I want to lay peacefully
on the green grassy fields,
and watch the clouds walk.
I want you back summer,
those generous scoops
of dairy-free mint coconut chocolate ice cream
were irresistible, decadent, and ridiculously scrumptious.
Please come back summer,
I’m dying to see
those brightly coloured flowers
dance in their flower beds again!
I want you back summer,
I’m longing to hear
the music of the rivers, waterfalls, ponds, swimming pools, creeks,
and the sound of kids playing, chuckling, and frolicking.
Please come back summer,
I’m yearning to cuddle
with my favourite tree
at the little park next door to me.
I want you back summer,
so I can retreat
to the rock garden
and have another mindful moment.
Please come back summer,
I miss you dearly.
I can’t wait to
reunite with you again.
Summer, I miss you already…….

I share your sentiments but can't really complain as our winters are not as brutal as others. Congratulations on Top Story! Hearted and subscribed!
Me, too! We have 6-8 inches of sloppy snow here. Yuck! Nice work, and congrats on Top Story!
This poem made me smile even though I'm very much a cold-weather person. The sentiment was beautiful, as were the delivery, delightfully bright imagery, and sensory notes. Well done!
