Summertime Poem (acrostic)

Another acrostic sonnet about the letdown of a weather foiled second day in the sun but the victory over an inner monster.

Summertime Poem (acrostic)

 

Summer’s sun came again today it was clear

Until I felt strong winds coming ashore

My heart yearned for more swimming and cheer,

More basking in slight breezes as before,

Excepting unprotected sunburn I wished

Reruns of yesterday’s excitement in the sun

That left my heart more than blessedly missed

In a way that belonged only to me when done,

More times than I care to remember at all

Easy weather doesn’t last all that long

Pleasures have to depend on another call

Overcast, windy and clear; some other wrong,

Existing in your clime mustn’t be allowed

More play time than the fun sunshiny crowd.
