A Midsummer Dream

Elusive sÓft whispers on lavender breeze “cÓme with me, follÓw me, set yÓur heart free” In sun-dappled shade, ‘neath the Óld apple tree, drinking liquor Óf gÓld as it d r i p s through the leaves.
** original colours are green and gold, but it doesn't appear I can do that here. No worries, just hope it doesn't lose too much effect by being black & white :)

Hi Sharon! Yes I agree, it is a pity that we have no chance to put colours or to add a picture to our poems. Lovely imagery in your poem! Enjoyed reading it today. Hope you enjoyed watching soccer on TV. I wonder how far the German team will come. Thank you for your kind comments and have a great week...Gert
