In the Circle of the Seasons, Summer Blue is the season that teaches children about tending the seeds that have been planted after they have begun to grow.
It teaches the children to nurture their garden by watering and caring for the garden daily.
Children are like gardens that need the right seeds planted when they are young (Sweet Spring), and then nurtured while they are maturing (Summer Blue) so that the result
is a harvest of a whole and complete young person (Autumn Gold). Then our beautiful Winter White comes to give everyone in the garden of life a rest.
The focus of Summer Blue is feeling…feeling the warmth of nurturing and care…feeling the warmth of the gentle sun.
Summer Blue’s Song
Summer smiles…all the while, and days stretch into years.
Warm sun…shines and touches all and she holds back the days of fall.
Rivers run…in slow…time, catching the whipper will’s call.
Come to the edge of river’s ledge or sit beside my waterfall.
Soft summer breezes…gentle sneezes beckoning one and all.
Just listen at night…to the nightingale’s call…just listen to the nightingale’s call.
Second Verse
And all about…as dusk comes out among the starlit skies…trees are lit with little stars…
stars called fireflies.
Little lanterns…glowing…burning…the little lanterns slowly turning nighttime into day.
Owls awake and softly whoooooooooooooooooooo…Summer smiles and calls to you.
Just lay back and dream awhile of summer days in summer haze with Summer Blue.
Peaceful dove gently cooooooooooooooooooooo’s…Summer smiles and calls to you…just
lay back and dream awhile of summer days in summer haze with Summer Blue.
Summer Blue can hold you too and make your special dreams come true.
Just follow her to understand…just follow her and take her hand.
Summer smiles…all the while and days stretch into years.
Warm sun shines and touches all and she holds back the hands of fall.
Come to the Garden Song
Come to the garden…get ready to play…
Come to the garden…we’ll play through the day.
By running water…sail ships from the shore…
Then come the showers…just watch how they pour…
Summer is playing…She’s right at your door.
Summer is staying…she wants to play more.
Come to the garden…get ready to tend…
With Summer Blue…the day we will spend.
Water the Garden…so the dirt doesn’t harden…
Water the garden in Summer Blue Haze
Water the garden on Summer Blue Days…
Come to the garden…Come One and All…
We’ll spend and we’ll tend until it is Fall.
Until Autumn Gold comes…until fall turns ablaze…
We’ll come to the garden in Summer Blue Haze.
Come to the garden get ready to tend…
Come to the garden…the fences we’ll mend.
By the gate…get your rake…hoe the row…now here we go…
Smell the flowers…feel the showers…water the beets…right at our feet…
Look at the garden…look at our garden
Summer Blue’s Garden is Summer Blue’s treat.
Come to the garden get ready to play
Come to the garden this fine summer day.
