Hello and Happy Poetry Friday! Be sure to visit Margaret at Reflections on the Teche for Roundup.
I am out adventuring! I did (of course) make time to write a new ArtSpeak: FOUR SEASONS poem... though in my poem, it's May instead of June! (Where did May go?!) Thank you so much for reading!

Wonderful promenade! Happy adventuring!
ReplyDeleteOf course, kites kiss/clouds in your ArtSpeak world, Irene. I love how you weave your thoughts into a magical poem. Enjoy your adventuring plans.
ReplyDeleteLove this poem, which seems to reflect your adventuring. Beautiful images: "parasols pop", "kites kiss", and I love the "sudden downpour of boots" Have a great summer!
ReplyDeleteSudden downpour of boots. That was our Main Street today. Rain, rain...I'll take it as long as I can relax into summer.
ReplyDeleteI wish I know where May went -- haven't a clue! All those wonderful actions on a sunny, sunny afternoon. It's all so cheerful. I would love it all...especially if it involved some siesta time.
ReplyDeleteLovely promenade poem, Irene. Enjoy your adventuring. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking us on this lovely promenade. I love the idea of "kites kissing clouds!" Have fun on your adventures!
ReplyDeleteLove the picture, hoping for those promenading that it's not too hot! Love that you have that 'puff' of dust in your poem, 'a downpour of boots' I'm guessing on a Sunday! Hope you're having fun wherever it takes you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun ending! Hope your boots are part of a downpour in a fun place!
ReplyDeleteLove the liberally sprinkled alliteration in your poem Irene. It works a treat and adds sparkle to your words. Happy promenading.
ReplyDeleteWonderful imagery! I love the final stanza of this poem. Happy adventures.
ReplyDelete"dusty streets puff praise"--with each step, muddy or dusty, promenading is walking meditation!
