Sun of Summer

Poet: Ken Jordan Poem: Sun Of Summer Edited by: Sparkle Jordan written: June/2015 Winters gone now, and its falling snow, and icy crystals, have liquefied to its watery grave. The once hazardous black ice that bedded atop the slippery asphalt streets, is gone too. Spring, is here, and the late March Sun, is still ninetythree million miles away from earth; rotating around a silver moon- Flowers are in bloom, in all their splendour, Cherry tree blossoms are budding, and the once dormant grass in winter is now green again. The familiar gradation of the late Spring hazy day sky, is slowly beginning it's change to a cloudless oasis, in the blue hues of celestial space. Soon, it's picture perfect looks, will give way to the relentless dog day's of summer, and the sweet sounds of chirping fledgling birds, singing in the breeze of spring, will migrate to some- where cool. Make no mistake about it, Summer is near, and the invisible celestial rays of heat, are slowly beginning to spiral down out the Sky. Any day now, the ball of fire in the universe, will farther distance itself from the silver moon; moving closer to earth, to send it's infernal rays through the atmosphere. Winters - slush, snow, and ice, and Springs, beautiful colours of carnations, and daffodils, will serve as a far distant memory, that succumbed to Summer's Sun - And from henceforth, the planet will burn, and silhouette's from Sun Rays, will shadow the orange/blue hues of a July, August, and September sky - Earth's axis now rest in Summer; some will welcome in the most sweltering season of them all, with beach fun, bbq party's and family outings in the park - However, not everyone will welcome the three months of scorching heat, as the Mercury Index reaches above three digits - Nonetheless, the Equinox, will spin the sun closer to earth, to reach fruition. and all will know that the Sun Of Summer has arrived - (C).
