Summertme's Pretty Basket Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Summertime is pretty and sunny And everything got ripe in its time. All farmers and peasants enjoyed Picking their fruit and singing All their pretty and lovely songs. They harvested all their spikes of Grain and picked all kinds of fruit: Sweet, sour, and bittersweet Pomegranates, peaches, pears, grapes, Figs, sycamores, apples, plums, and all Other pretty things of summertime. Summertime's real basket is full of Happiness and joys, love and merry- Making, songs and singers, and All kinds of the pretty pleasures of life. It's the prime of summertime and its Great pride. The true pleasures and the true life Come to the courts of the pretty season. It's the pretty basket of the farmers And their pretty life.
