Fresh Cut Grass

My favorite thing about the month of June 
The smell of cuttings across the lawn
The air so crisp and beautifully warm by noon
The smell of the day after right after dawn
Spirits linger in early mournings rays
Each moment passes, away silently slips the day
 
If only those moments could only last
The smell of dew and fresh cut grass
Clean, crisp and fresh holding it with loving grasp
 All through the day

thank you I wrote this poem Fresh Cut Grass while our lawn mower was broken, I guess I was kind of hoping it would help get the yard mowed. Now we are waiting on the grass to be green and not brown, so we can make cuttings again.
