Summer Nights

The longest day comes Summer nights are soon passing The moon is rising I toss in my sleep Waiting for the turquoise sky To turn a dark blue There is a chill now Rain, wind, and humidity Worrying me here Country drives restore The Bracken will soon turn brown I am not ready I want to sleep soon But my restlessness is strong I must find my self Before the Autumn Leaves fall upon on the crowded streets And my dawn is noon

Interesting thoughts that you have penned..The longest day is soon the twenty-first then they start to shorten again..It would be nice if the cool weather would come with that change but not months more of this heat.. Keep the creative pen flowing..Sara
