Sunny SaturdayA Poem by AntonionioniIt's what it says in the title - with supercharged alliteration
A surprisingly sunny Saturday Spent splishing splashing in a swimming pool Stuffing sausages sat in some café Skin slowly sizzling in the sun, such cool Wind swishing swirling shaking shrubs so full With spring and summer supplements of green From seeds to shoots to stalks to stamens, all Supplanting sad and shady winter scenes The surefire supposition should, it seems Suggest the sunshine shall subside by May Shall turn sour, shower-soaked summer’s stern misrule Submerging streets and smiles, suppressing dreams So savour the sunshine and seize the day Soon solid skies shall smear our shining jewel © 2008 AntonionioniAuthor's Note
