It doesn’t seem that long ago I released the Spring Haiku book, and it’s not, but it’s still summer and I thought now was the time to release this one, too!

I’m thrilled to announce that the fourth book in my Haiku series, “Seasons”, will be coming out soon.  I thought I’d share the cover with you now.  Once again, the photo on the front cover (and faded out on the back) was taken by my daughter, Alyssa.  She captured the essence of the ocean, beach, sky, and the people taking it all in, perfectly!

 

The date for the fourth book in the Four Seasons collection will be released soon!!  Keep watching!!   🙂

Rolling hills, verdant, green, azure skies of blue, white puffy clouds float along with the breeze, ah, summer, I’ve been waiting, for you. Flowers decorate the meadows below, a sea of white, they are nature’s reflection. Oh, how I long to get lost, in the glow, of Heaven’s purest perfection. The scent in the air, breathes my thoughts to the wind, pondering, where this season rescinds; the warmth of her touch, giving in to the fall, oh, summer, you’re not nearly long enough, at all. So I shall plant, this image in my head, dream of these days, when winter, instead, has brought in the frost, to cover the land, and pray once again, for sweet summer, so grand.

 

I combined Sue’s #writephoto and ~M’s Daily Writing Prompt  🙂

How Cool (or hot, in this case!)!! KaylaAnn is having an End of Summer POETRY CONTEST! Join in the fun, but be sure to follow the rules 😉

Hello Everyone, it’s time to do this again!

Are you a poet? Do you enjoy writing poems until your heart is sore or until it soars?

I’ve held a poetry contest once before and I absolutely adored it! It was a blast and I got to meet tons of amazing poets and bloggers. For my current followers, you may have noticed an influx of poetry appearing on my own blog lately. What can I say, it’s simply flowing out of me! Anyhow, I am so excited to hold an “End of Summer Poetry Contest.” Unlike my first Poetry Contest, this contest is themed!

*Please be sure to read all of the rules, otherwise your poem may not be eligible!*

Summer (1)

Rules:

  • To be eligible for this competition you must be subscribed to my page (i.e. following and receiving emails.) Not subscribed yet? No worries! Go to my home screen…
