"Midsummer Joys"

by Winifred Sackville Stoner

Give me the joys of summer,

Of summer queen so fair,

With wealth of lovely flowers

And fruits and sun-kissed air!

Talk not to me of winter

With ice and frost and snow,

Nor changing spring and autumn

When howling winds will blow.

No, I will take the joys

Of summer every time,

So to this Queen of Seasons

I dedicate my rhyme.
