August

August-bright adamant, 
Purple, bright, sweet. 
It stores your talent 
And its taste is sweet and sour. 

In the last month of summer 
The area is standing and breathing heat. 
The foliage is ready to change color, 
And the butterflies fly in disarray. 

Vase at the open window, 
The harmonica is playing next, 
It sounds late here 
And this August will be a treasure trove. 

The lark sings a song 
As dawn breaks over the edge, 
And willow twigs cling 
With its green crown. 

Honeymoon August outside the window 
Plays softly on the pipe, 
Warm with Apple wine, 
Finish the bird trills. 

August leaves young 
And at parting gives a pear. 
Summer goes with it 
And sadness creeps into the soul.
