The fabric of temperate night unravels, Embellishing August her red gown Through heaven’s lease… this daughter of flame Spreads buds, their complexion pure as dew. And mornings welcome sunlight , gold as her locks, While this maiden romps along untrimmed fields That She , in possession of eternal wantonness grant An explosion of wildflowers crowing her limbs: By the meadow’s shade, heated breeze changes into fog To augur Fall’s tender arrival— Making a warm queenly exit, she leaves with a dulcet kiss. ……………….. 8/16/2019 A Summer Day Redo: Michelle Faulkner’s Contest
