Low eyelids, Mona smile, shine and glow
Fluffy flops in corner table shade.
Lemonade and cards, move cool and slow
All drawn into the one room AC made.

Moist oppression fills the atmosphere
All drawn into the one room AC made
To seek some comfort, the warm-blooded share.

Body, spirit, mind slow rhythms down.

Counting to the thunderstorm ahead
Body, spirit, mind slow rhythms down
Too much work to crawl in garden, bed.

Pace into the days of dogs and roses

Patio pansy wilts, dahlia dozes.

Cecilia,
ReplyDeleteI love this! The form is perfect for the absolutely repetitive and lulling weather we have had... "All drawn into the one room AC made", "Pace into the days of dogs and roses", Low eyelids, Mona smile, shine and glow" - these are beautiful lines, Cecilia. I have lots to learn from you. More! More please!

Thanks Amy! I am learning so much from Poem Farm and I think writing is coming back into its place for me...one of the joys of my life.
