reverie

Ah to be a Summer gift -- borne on Sun's warm
rays,
a welcome lift for all to gaily
praise
Easy winds, breezy gush of summer
rain
feeding the greedy young grains,
growing along the plains, flowers of the
storm.
Feeding the beasts of the field,
celebrate blessed excess, as all is
revealed.
Burn with hazy summer wine and
dance,
feet connecting dust to sky.
Sing of Summer surf, held close to mystery.
Undersea caves cradle chests of gems, shining
like starlight.
Summers' call of water and sand;
twilights of harmonic symphonies when
Sun
touches green horizons.
scented summer secrets, diffusing softly into
twilight
unwinding carnival music, evening blooms, cast
out into summer wind
remembrance of soft summer nights by the sea, by
the lute of starlight
The summer city in darkness exudes a fantasy
quality,
an off-kilter surrealism.
Dark urban streets
Yes, lamplight,
Garishly bright commercial signs,
Traffic lights, head, tail,
mechanical commands.
But here, outside clear
designation,
lightless, solitary, obscure.
Brave walk, forward
in quest of inspiration or fabulous
revelation.
Subways, bridges, city bones upon
which
to drum, to explore
rhythm and blues.
Sparkly spirit, chaotic amusement,
mystery.
Jeweled sparkle through emblazoned
green,
I see a field of play, of poets and sprites
gaily a’song
while elf folk take a laugh, a dance,
a merry evening’s holiday.
On roads of old (a half-century or so), firefly
pipers inspire
hopeful wild kind to be. Free flight like in
infant dreams
before boundaries.
