A short summer night storm (poem)

A short summer night storm

There is barely a cloud in the blue sky of this dawn,
Drops of rain left sitting on the grass tips of the lawn.
Last night’s storm leaving behind its own watery mark,
Abandoning its rain to form puddles in the dark.

A few small branches were blown off in its roaring fear,
But hardly more than twigs, they won’t take too long to clear.
Some flower heads are drooping, but no harm has been done,
They will soon recover with the coming of the sun.

The water is still dripping from the leaves of the tree,
A drop falls from leaf to leaf in its bid to break free.
Free to rejoin its fellows in those miniature lakes,
It landing site revealed from the ripples that it makes.

The garden begins to sparkle as the sun appears,
The roses are adorned with a splattering of tears.
The warmth from the sun will soon drink the puddles away,
Drying out the land for a beautiful summers’ day.

Summer’s first hints of Autumn (poem)

04 Sep

Summer’s first hints of Autumn

Summer’s first hints of autumn are appearing,
There’s just a leaf or two dropping here and there.
Showing to us that autumn time is nearing,
It feels just a little cooler in the air.

The daytime is now slowly decreasing,
The sun is spending less time in the sky.
The night time is now slowly increasing,
With the evening stars once more seen up high.

Squirrels start to seek nuts for hibernating,
Racing around the branches of the trees.
Birds have started to think about migrating,
To warmer places over the land and seas.

Some summer flowers are fading from sight,
As their bright colours slowly disappear.
But others will wait for autumn’s first bite,
And keep going until the frost gets here.

Summers first hint of autumn is in the air,
As nature starts releasing summers warm glow.
A time for the world of nature to prepare,
For whatever the winter may put on show.

Late summer gardening (poem)

19 Sep

Late summer gardening

Summer’s nearly over, there’s a chill coming to the night,
I can see the garden flowers are not looking quite so bright.
It’s time to get some garden tools and take a look around,
Before the leaves start falling, moving summer to the ground.

There’s a tree that needs trimming, some branches are far too long,
But I’ll leave plenty, upon which the birds can sing their song.
The roses need cutting, their blossoms are fading away,
Although some still carry the scent of a fragrant summers day.

I can see some weeds need clearing from the corner flowerbed,
One rose I will leave alone, whilst its flowers shine bright red.
The bushes need clipping, removing a branch just here & there,
Oops, I’d better get started, or I’ll never get anywhere!

At last it’s all done! I will pick some blackberries to eat,
And go and take a well-earned rest upon the garden seat.
Then from all these cuttings, I will create a tidy heap,
To make a winter home, where the hedgehogs can go to sleep.
