Summer Bliss

Imagine! I'm as chirpy as
a cricket, as swift as a chipmunk
as sweet as a strawberry, as
curious as a monkey, and as
light as a butterfly in the
throes of happiness, in love
with summer. I revel in the
casual spontaneity, the ease
and pleasure of leisure, flit
about like a dragonfly in my
garden, too pleased for mere
words to express my gratitude
to nature and the good fortune
that life has bestowed upon me
loved and loving the time
shared with my companion
from childhood to marriage. I
glow with thanksgiving.
