In response to a Discover prompt seen on The Daily Post, The Poetry of List-Making, I offer my list, although not quite ten things… Go here to view the challenge and participate. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/discover-challenges/the-poetry-of-list-making/
This is my list poem:
Ten or Fourteen Things Saying Summer
Perfectly ripe berries
The sweet flesh of a white peach
Garden centres at the supermarket
Dandelions carpeting the lawn
Shouts from my neighbour’s pool
Yellow ears of crisp corn
Deep red field tomatoes bigger than baseballs
Shorts, sandals, ceiling fans
The town street bazaar
Black-eyed Susans, Petunias, the scent of roses
