Summer Night
Not quite light, not quite dark
It was hazy, hot, and humid today
Setting on my old front porch
Just leisurely passing time away
Lightening bugs are softly glowing
Crickets are chirpping their tune
Darkness is descending rapidly
I can see a beautiful crescent moon
Sounds of summer all around
Oh, the glorious seasonal scent
Just a hint, of a summer breeze
The day is but hours of being spent
Not many more summer nights
Soon snow will cover the ground
For this moment, I am content
With the beauty of sight and sound
For Write Now (It took me ten minutes
to write this on my front porch}
