Listen to poem:

August feels much like a hot, humid sauna, Ushering in the dog days of Summer's end. Gladiolus, little swords, sway in the breeze, Under the mid-day heat of a blazing sun. Summer’s leaves will soon start to flaunt Fall colors, Transforming green into scarlet and orange.

Loved the imagery, Emile. I guess my favoritism toward rhyme is the only reason this did not place slightly higher. Congrats for the podium win in my contest.
