We borrowed this day <br />From the chores that needed <br />To be done <br />And ran away in celebration <br />Of the first day of summer <br />Which arrived with thunder roaring <br />And forceful rain...ah, but we <br />Were side by side thankful for the <br />Blessing of another day <br />Exchanging serenades, sharing laughter <br />And the impassioned bounty of our <br />Being together. <br /> <br /> <br />June 20,2008<br /><br />Dorothy (Alves) Holmes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/first-day-of-summer-arrived/
