Summer ...
Aug. 18th, 2005 09:53 pmOlly and I took the new car for a spin and drove around the countryside. Beautiful, just beautiful :) And the trip inspired me to the following:
The ripeness of summer
Enfolds the countryside
Deep greens of trees,
Riotuous colours
Of flowers and vegetables
All soon to be harvested.
Celebrate the summer
Its wine and flowers
The giddy scent of honeysuckle and roses
Soon the greens will turn to russets
And the promise of autumn
Is only a breath away
With winter only a further step on the path.
