Summer Rispetto

The August breeze drifts  with  the scent of night hours
When carnations glitter through an inner fire
Their perfume releasing musk upon bowers
And dragonflies unveil their orange attire.

Lively the gala among vivid flowers
While robins tweet… dulcet notes  climbing higher;
As portrait of summer  glosses a blazed moon
To inflame ardent hearts like a lover’s tune!

Nette, I love when you paint like this.. your brush more like a mystro's wand, majestically directing nature as if all of her parts were an orchestra. And her song woos the lover's hearts. I have been around music all my life and there still is no beat, no measure, no composition or lyric that can ever compare to nature's ballads!

Your lines to form are closely matched. Unblemished skill is yours unmatched. How you entertain and so prolonged harks to the birthplace of astonishment. I love your work and will try to get by more often.
