Sunlite Wanter Poet Imagism

Soon - Goodbye To Summer

Soon

Icy drops of dew like diamonds 
Crunch beneath summer-sandaled toes. 
Trembling trees release their tired jewels 
To risk breezes off northern snows.  

Topaz, garnet and citrine leaves 
Spiral from moonstone blue skies above 
Emeralds lose their hot weather hues, 
Sparrows cuddle, asleep is the dove
