ItsSammy Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Pretty blonde hair and fair eyes, she is mine Like a summer day, she glows like sunshine I'm lost in the blue of her eyes, so fine And her sun-kissed skin is just so divine Ocean in her eyes, still by the shoreline Unmoving in her beauty, walk the line Just as summer fades, seasons realign But she just goes untouched by the deadline Eternal summer, got me on cloud nine It's the very fabric of her design Watch as the sun sets over the skyline Perfect summer day got a new design And her eyes are the true dividing line Between eternal summer or snow line. (Don't know if summer related metaphors count but I gave it a shot.) 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiroe Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 It took a while, but I finally finished mine. Hopefully it's closely related to "summer" enough. Spoiler The many faces that one can treasure. This summer, I saw you reveal them all. A face of anger, a face of pleasure, A face of loneliness you wore ‘till fall. It was your sunshine that filled my pieces. A sunshine that I can’t get enough of. It was you that had flattened my creases. Creases I have come to cherish and love. With you, I find things I could never see. Things I had once feared, but now wish for more. Summer shares its gentle embrace with me, Blankets of sun that I happily wore. Last summer, I found the skies to be blue, But it was this summer that I found you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seshi Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 Thanks for participating in the Summer Sonnet Contest! It was a pleasure to read the works that you’ve created for it. I really enjoyed both of your Sonnets @ItsSammy and @Kinbaryu - I appreciate you taking the time to make such a specific work. I apologize for the lack of other competition- perhaps Sonnets are a bit too much at the moment. Anywho, I’ve awarded Kinbaryu 2,000 points and a first place for a very touching poem befitting of summer. ItsSammy 1,000 points and second place for your creativity in penning those lines. Thank you both again. I hope to see you next time! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
