Revival

Happy first day of Summer!

Senses overwhelmed

by this day that’s never been;

Embrace it in this moment,

and pray to meet its twin

 

No gloom of cloud prevails

upon the azured skies,

the birdsong a cacophony;

avian allies

 

From Heaven’s vault, a lemon burst

of joy on face and fields

while lime flavors each blade of grass,

the kiss of Life revealed

 

Blinded by the rapture of

this estival arrival

miraculous, the healing touch ~

June’s spiritual revival

 

Author's Note

This is the perfect day for Summer's arrival.

[Rita L. Sev]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed, RB!

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

Wow! A perfect poem for a perfect welcome for your Summer season. So inspiring.
Great job!

[Rita L. Sev]

Thank you, Dhaye! Mother Nature sang this morning! :)

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

I think we have to sing, too. Let's have a trio. Lol. Every morning is a time to celebrate.

[Rita L. Sev]

Agreed! I am smiling here, because I am truly a morning person! :)

[David Scott]

The revival of the spirit is often given from the energy in nature.
I like the poem Rita. The flow of the read was consistent and the feeling I got was of a true heartfelt revival.
Funny thing here is I think you could actually reverse the thought and speak about how a true spiritual revival changes a person. I can see the beauty of summer and also the face of a girl named June.
Well conceived and conveyed.

[Rita L. Sev]

Thank you for your thoughtful review, David! I will be giving some new thought to the revival, as well as to people named June! :)

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, Jacob. I know that the oppressive Philly heat is coming, but today was as perfect as it gets around here!

Ok I am thinking of PIE now. And I like pie. This is a breezy - uplifting slice of poetry. So nice!

[Rita L. Sev]

Mmmm... pie! After I wrote those lines, I was thinking "Really? 7-Up?" LOL! Thanks, Tammy - glad it was uplifting!
