Summer Recollections

Summer Recollections
by Lemuel R. Griffiths
25th June, 2,108



Ah., to remember.., 
Whilst in the presence of a majestic tree, 
The single moment of a first-love-kiss-hearts beat.
Ere, the fleeting first knowledge of creation., 
As a butterfly, flutter-by lands upon a small hand - 
And a single sun-ray through a leaf.

With no thought of any other season.., 
If this be melancholy., 
Then I shall stay mad.., 
And incensed.., 
That I must someday leave.
