A Summer of Dappled Light

Restful Sun-lit lawns are the soft colors of a buttercup velvet, the bright dapples of lemon-lime. The Summer house is a sunflower adoring the sky. And two pale yellowed leaves of the Igiri tree nigh the Summer home are butterfly wings. They are within a mid-summer flush, are a warm Autumn hue of light beauty. The golden weeds amongst the breezy unkempt grass of a backyard are the daubs of a pastel. The house daydreams as the sun is caught by the tree, as it slips into the dusk. And the heavens cast the bursting stars.
