Summer Rispetto

Green leaves listless languor lushly suspended Dew glistening on grassy fields in early morn Breeze gathering, cumulous clouds upended Sun's rays burning through atmosphere's haze, reborn Sweet corn on the cob gracing street vendors' stalls Ice cream creations on cones piled up so tall Love's blossoms on flower petal arrangements Bridal showers, joyous wedding engagements July 09, 2018

You've captured the images of summer well.in your verse Gershon, Having a great summer spell here in the UK which is unusual. Back from Turkey now, temps there were 40•c, a bit too.much for me. Tom
