In northern climes such as mine, setting Summer sunlight lingers, reluctant to Kiss the horizon adieu. Instead he Preens proudly, peacock-like, casting aloft Feathery rays, changling* colors, plumage Variant in sequence: yellow, orange, Fire-red, blood-vermillion, green flash! Color collisions, re-imaging joy. In such a perfect day where the packing Of one more ounce of meaningful mem’ry Seems well nigh impossible, Apollo’s Chariot careen’d ‘cross my sky, setting Imagination, e’en overnight dreams Afire. I sit hush’d before the Sublime.
