Beauty Recalled

grieving sad loss of summer
it is time of greatest joy
when old bones no longer ache
and eyes are blessed with colour

to smell crisp newly mown grass
after warm summer shower
herbaceous border delights
hollyhocks reached perfection

midnight, smell the torpid air
wisteria in moonlight
salamander on old walls
nightlight with aura sheds glow

drinking strong morning coffee
wide eyes take in this beauty
never to be forgotten
image held close to my heart
