Joyful golden lady’s slippers, ready for the ball,
Undulating grasses, growing new-fawn tall;
Noses full of lilacs, scented evening breeze,
Elegantly emerald, quaking aspen trees.

What delights you about June?
short and sweet, and full of rhythm and motion…. I love the first line, and also really like the sound of “undulating grasses” & “elegantly emerald”!
Thank you! The world was so green and verdant and scented tonight…
Oh how lovely!! Not crazy about June, especially–anniversaries that carry baggage–but the 2nd half will surely be an improvement over the the first 2 weeks. Great acrostic work, Mel!!
My first one! A Caddo-Tribute, if you like! 🙂
I wondered! How fabulously fun–thank you!!!
I didn’t know you were preparing an acrostic for today, too – great minds and all that???? …..
I know! I LOVE when that happens! Actually, I truly love the acrostic form–it’s structured, but not so much that it pinches and gives me headache!
Not the way you do it. I seem to recall acrostics being very contrived, back in my student days. I like your form…
Merci, gracias, etc! I don’t think I’d ever done an acrostic till I was introduced here on the blogs–thank goodness for the Internet, eh?!
Amazing opportunity! Learning and practice and almost instant feedback, all rolled up into one convenient package…
Really! And it’s a free course, aside from Cable bill–such a deal!
🙂 fantastic!
Thank you so much! 😉
I love June because it feels “fully summer”. The days are long and sunny, the garden is growing with gorgeous tomato plants and best of all, there are still almost 3 full months of warm, heavenly weather left here in the Northeast!
So much to look forward to! 😉 Thank you…
For me…I guess the pool being 86 degrees. Just my kind of swimming temperature. 🙂
Excellent! 🙂 I’m in!
A wonderful post! I’m ready for the summer ball too 🙂
I love June – memories of summer vacation, excitement for my kids, enjoying the outdoors, windows open, summer breeze, willow trees, warm sun…I can go on & on….
Mmmm…. I like the sound of ALL of those things!
🙂
California June-gloom is actually resting, reflective and blooming all around !
Blooming all around sounds lovely! 🙂
