Notes About The Poem

Composed for the "Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall" contest, sponsored by Andrea Dietrich.

 

While Summer Shall Shine On Your Soul

Come, now while summer shall shine on your soul,
Leave off the darkness, the doubt and the fear;
Come, now the Earth’s with divinity full,
Leave off the wretched, and cling to the dear;
Come, now forgive, and thus make yourself whole.
