How beautiful this Summer day the colour of the flowers,
to match my mood, I’d like today, rain and thunder all the way.
The snow and hail they could come, and even lightning too,
If I could take your pain away a hurricane would do.
How beautiful this Summer day, with not a cloud in sight
and there you are again in bed, putting up a fight.
The sun is blazing down the rays, and when you turn and smile,
I’ll keep you with me and that gaze, and never miss the flowers
and if you think I love you less, I’ll long for summer showers.
How beautiful this Summer day the stillness of it all,
the sky is brilliant almost red! you smile at me and rest your head.
So does it matter the flowers are out does it matter that their blue!
if I could take your pain away, then this is what I’ll do.
For then the rays, the lovely sun, the flowers each and everyone,
I’ll keep you and that lovely gaze then this will be my Summer day.

I hope this man makes many more summers – I loved your poem
Such beautiful words, Susie, and so poignant as I hold my dear husband close today. Chemo-induced fatigue and sickness keep us inside on this beautiful summer day … and I know we are not alone in our journey.
