Whereto Summer

Idle play Lazy day Drifting hours While away Dip a toe In the stream How faint the breeze 'Tis but a dream Summer stretches Endless limbs Eternity's waters 'Neath Sunshine's rim Daytime fades Yields night's dark shade Lone songster croons Melancholy tunes Linger no more Fleet tidings of yore Lure nevermore Painted whore Whereto fled the magic That summertime was Where doth reside Its Wizard of Oz

Makes me feel I'm in the idle days of summer already - Very evocative!

Thank you, Michelle. Funny how a mind works, isn't it? Here we are waiting on Spring and Summer---and I'm writing about Summer taking its leave...Go figure!...Your kind words are much appreciated. Best wishes to you and yours, Gershon
