SUMMER LOVIN' ~ A Seasonal Sonnet for CHRISTINA S

BRIAN & ANGELA



 

ENGLISH GARDENS ~ ALWAYS PURRRFECT IN SUMMER ! 

 

SUMMER ~ The Season we all bless

Tis heralded by days of balmy SPRING

If she were shorter ~ could we love her less ?

Desire of all ~ that you Sweet Summer bring !

 

The roses bloom in Summer's balmy heat

Wild flowers in the grass ~ profuse in bloom

When AUTUMN comes ~ the Summer is complete

And every year the Autumn comes too soon !

 

Summer is a Season for all ages

The Sea & Sand beloved of the YOUNG

The Cricket Field for wise straw-hatted Sages

And Ladies pic-nics ~ salads ham & tongue !

 

In FLORIDA it's Summer ~ ALL THE YEAR

But that would NOT be BRITISH ~ NO MY DEAR ! 

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

 

SUMMER we all love it !  Global Warming is turning 

the UK into SAN TROPEZ ~ Topless at SOUTHEND

so why not stay at HOME for the Holidays ~ We may

have to after BREXIT ~ but I prefer HADDOCK & CHIPS

to ESCARGOTS et JAMBES de GRENOUILLES ! Enjoy the

Photos of SOUTHEND which is a popular ESSEX (UK)

Holiday Resort and is only about 1 hours drive from

where I live. It's close to LONDON so please visit ~ THANKS !

You may ask why is this very ENGLISH Sonnet is dedicated

to a SASSY GAL like Christina S ?  Well she lives in one of the

most Beautiful States in the USA ~ BUT ~ The Winters are

too long and the Spring too short ~ But Summer in XXXXX

is PARADISE and Chris can't wait to get back into modelling

mode in her Teeny Weeny ~ Red &Yellow Polka dot BIKINI !

Love from England ~ Tus Hermanos  ANGELA & BRIAN XOXOX

          Just like that as I look out of the window - sun shining, garden full of bloom, striped lines where I have cut the lawn and a gin and tonic awaits - perfect Brian.

          • BRIAN & ANGELA

            Ahhhhhhhh MIKE ~ just like ANDY you too are a quintessential Englishman ~ Well stocked garden ~ Neatly cropped lawn and G & T before lunch ! Now we are getting more Sun (Global Warming but don't tell Tronald Dump) England is an even bester place to live on Earth ! Pleased you liked it ~ Yours BRIAN

            Mio Caro Amico BRIAN,
            Una bella poesia!
            When I saw the title of this great poem, it reminded me of the song, SUMMER NIGHTS, from “Grease” with the lyrics’‘Summer lovin’ had me a blast”...
            The tune won’t leave my head any time soon!

            Love the poem, pic and clip of Nat King Cole...even if John Travolta and Olivia Newton John are humming in my head!đŸŽ¶
            Abbracci e Baci per te ed Angela...
            ~Laura~

            • BRIAN & ANGELA

              THANKS CHRIS ~ When I decided to do a SUMMER SONNET ~ I thought of YOU ! You do live in an exceptional State ~ which I have visited and Enjoyed in Summer / Autumn ~ but for reasons I won't go into Your Winters are too long & Spring too short ~ but when Summer comes ~ your STATE was made for it ! I visualised you enjoying the Sun (70+F) in your BIKINI and thinking "What A Lovely State to be in !" Pleased you loved the Poem ~ Picture & Nat king Cole and the wonderful videos in the CD ! Glad I made you cry for all the right reasons ~ Angela loved your response and sends her LOVE ! Big Hugs ~ Tus Hermanos ANGELA y BRIAN @@@@@@@ A & I are just enjoying Lemon Chicken and Saffron Rice ~ we are very relaxed about New Zealand and our future together in 2020 ! A & B @@@@@@@
