Blooming Summer

Daylights departure comes near
Her colors are aroused on a pallet premier
A dab of crimson and bitter orange too
Mixed in with a paisley powdered blue 
Heavenly kissed dusted yellow 
A peculiar quiet covers the countryside mellow
A blushing sundown has graced our presents
Evening breezes whispering summers events 
Deep emerald lawns and well groomed trees 
Busy dancing crickets chirp with ease
Eager bats take flight for a feast 
Nature stirring its pollen released 
Familiar kept associations of seasons in our minds
Tranquil warm zephyr continues it’s unwind
Bountiful maples call shadows in the twilight
As two lovers hold close under the emerging moon light

Laura, I almost feel as though I stepped into the pages of a children's book into an enchanted land, and yet, I know you are writing about a beautiful reality you have seen. Your words are magic as they paint a picture of many glories to behold of this amazing season. Delightful and as magical as nature can be. Love, Shar
