 Summer Dreams
(a rispetto)

As summer warms the earth for me
and banishes the rains of spring,
I walk alone beside the sea
'neath salty spray and sea gull's wing.

A summer's bliss is rare and brief,
while autumn lurks, a silent thief.
The breeze the sea gull glides upon
will fade like dreams when summer's gone.

I really appreciate this poem….I love to watch
the Seagulls here in my home city of Hull, UK…
Being only a short drive from the sea, the Seagulls
in all their graceful glory fascinate me…
You have aptly alerted us to the brevity of Summer,
and the arrival of Autumn when these images will
merely be dreams upon the breeze…

I love fall, but I know what you mean.

This is a real jewel, Katharine. To say so much in so few words is
rare and precious. I love the mood you set. Images, sounds, and rhythm!~!

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
