Nette Onclaud Poet Tercet

Notes About The Poem

Joanna Daniels' Tercet Contest...14 Jul 26

Summer In Red

To wander beneath lush morning trees
     Imprinting varnish of leaves, anew
  When July casts its charm with such ease.

           ~The mantle of summer decked in reds,
   This cycle brings dazzle, to imbue 
         A warm gust embellished from voile threads.

     While meadows parade their sizzled grace ,
             I romp along grasses' mellow view
    Till sunlight weaves its pour of embrace.

   Brooks temperate quide these nimble toes
             Lingering on, buds  trickle on cue--
     My arms tossed in whimsical repose.

Until night gently inks this wild sway ~ 
               A prayer, a moment ,    this debut
   Enthralls my soul...tinged by heaven's ray!
