The Time of Summer

Crunching underfoot, the land sighs
Warmth drenches all about
Pooling heavy in the shadows
Dripping sticky through the air
Holding strong the day
Sleeping only with the sun
Rustling the russet rushes
Gentling the great green boughs
Light and sweet, the springtime walk
Cold and sharp, the winter stroll
But hushed and drowsy is the
Time of summer, unlike all other
