A Summer Song

Introduction

This is a villanelle for Ellie Hoovs' July Poetry Prompt Contest (day 3) “Summer is singing”, which you can find more about here:

I thought Pink Floyd's "Grantchester Meadows" was perfect for this, and while I can't match these lyrics, it is a perfect accompaniment to my villanelle.

A Summer Song

🦋🌬️🎵🐝🌞🕊️🎶🌀🐞

Now, Come Listen To Nature's Song

In The Calm, Gentle Blowing Breeze

Hear Earth's Music All Summer Long

🐝🌞🕊️

Pollinating Butterflies Throng

And Hear The Buzzing Of The Bees

Now, Come Listen To Nature's Song

🐝🌞🕊️

In The Hedgerows, Hear The Birdsong

In The Wind, The Rustling Of Leaves

Hear Earth's Music All Summer Long

🐝🌞🕊️

To Mother Earth We All Belong

In Music Of Zephyr-Blown Trees

Now, Come Listen To Nature's Song

🐝🌞🕊️

Gaia Invites Us, Come Along

Sing With Nature, And Join In Please

Hear Earth's Music All Summer Long

🐝🌞🕊️

Summer Is Here, So Stand Up Strong

Let Us All Sing, Both You And Me

Now, Come Listen To Nature's Song

Hear Earth's Music All Summer Long

🦋🌬️🎵🐝🌞🕊️🎶🌀🐞
