Farewell August
Days of cloudless skies
Cicadas songs
Brilliant star filled nites
Cicadas songs
Brilliant star filled nites
Late evening air so rich and dense
it's nearly liquid
Farewell August
Days of baking sun
Tomato ripening
Watering can filling (and emptying)
In continual cycles
In continual cycles
Farewell August
Days of peak summer green
And yellow corn
And yellow corn
Fields of berries red and blue
(A temptation to make jam)
Farewell August
Days of summer porch
Every window open nites
Rounds of deep resounding thunder
And watermelon for two....
Days of summer porch
Every window open nites
Rounds of deep resounding thunder
And watermelon for two....
