July’s Gentle Heart

A happy time in the sun having fun

July’s Gentle Heart

Sunlight spills through open doors

laughter hums along the floors

hands in hands, no need to roam

July has made our hearts a home

Soft warm skies and dancing leaves

quiet joy on summer eves

the world feels kind, the hours slow down

with love like this, we wear no frown

Children play where daisies grow

streams of laughter gently flow

and in your smile, so pure, so wide

I find my peace, my summer pride

No gold could buy these days so sweet

just simple love where warm hearts meet

and in July, we hold what’s true

the happy world of me and you

On the beach with Grandad we run and play,

Thankful for this summers day.

    Good job and I could feel the fun in the poem. My grandad let me help feed his hunting dogs and at one time even his pigeons when I was a very young kid then he got too sick and mainly stayed in his house, but I do remember his smell of cigar and whiskey.

    AW, what a beautiful poem. I love it. Never had a grandfather I could run and play with. Pop was too busy running his store (but then, he rarely spoke to my mom who didn't marry an Irish boy) and my dad's father died years before I was born. Yet, I can still dream of the way I would have like things to be. GREAT poem. Makes me want to crawl into my fantasy world for just a minute longer.
