Poem Artwork

Dog days of
summer heat licks my face
with soft tongue.

Languorous
afternoons spent in shade of
willow trees
 
drinking tea -
as evening comes, flaming
reds cool to

refreshing
blues and purples as the
sun beds down -

it doesn't
get much better than this.

(c) 2009, Karla Dorman (6/18)
