The fog comes boiling in, coats raucous den It's coolness against summer scorched plants Like a healing balm over wounded skin Or a very calming tea for troubled rants It can't touch upon daylilies' blossom For their season of orange is somehow spent One more proof early fall will arrive, awesome Cool nights with color change, just a hint In life, seasons come, and slowly go We desire for change to come, independence To be on our own, make choices, our row hoe Our own decisions make, put up our fence Soon realize we've reached our fall or winter Our seasons used like the daylily's sliver Finis' We only have a sliver of time/ how do we spend it?

lovely sonnet - so unusual to see 'silver' used (they say it doesn't rhyme with anything, ha ha, but it works nicely here)

Jack, Well, I don't think that anything rhymed with my word sliver but it is okay. Thanks for the visit to my page. Some words that rhyme with it are giver, shiver, quiver, etc. Sara
