MAIN Summer Vacation Summer Theme Poems & Quotes

"A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing,
the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken." ~ James Dent

Summer has always inspired poetry, great song lyrics, and witty sayings.

The warm fun-filled days, the cooler nights, sandy beaches or mountain hikes filled with day dreams and beautiful scenery or just enjoying the balmy weather in the place where you live...

The settings are natural for the budding or professional poet to create word pictures and musings about their pleasant vacation activities.

Summer themed poetry and quotes are wonderful to use in cards, letters and party invitations to set the tone. Take a look at what others have been inspired to write by the long summer days—it just might bring out the poet or the sage hiding inside you!

Summer afternoon... to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language. ~ Henry James
