Summer Rhapsody
The crimson sun of demure dawn
Climbs up the smoky sky seething slow
Burns air for the summer hasn’t gone.
Embracing the trees hot wind blows
Lean leaves filter sunburst streaks
Weave lattice of reverie on cool shadows.
The wind whistles in the blue hill
Music makes the sound of silence
Echoing in reclined valley winding still.
Vivid hues waft from the edge of twilight
Sprinkle spectra on my canvas
Paint alluring fresco of summer delight.
“The summer night is still and sweet
With flowers on every tree
Peace comes to them on quiet feet.”
Stardust dances with blissful cadency
In the sanctum of my mind
I store the treasure of summer rhapsody.
