Summer Sight

The dark gray winter passed
The velvet green spring sidestepped
Ah! The gold sheen of summer veneer
Dissipating warmth and promising cheer.

The weeds, the grass, the slender cattails
Having sipped the inebriating ale
Flutter and dance with jubilation
At last the moments of sun’s celebration!

Oh! the majestic shades-gold,orange,crimson!!
Shouldn't we all sing and pray in unison?
Grateful for each warm long day
drenched in the sorcerer’s signature ray.
