Hoppers chirp
Bees hum
Fostering species
Flowers bloom
Cotton clouds
Blot the sky
Breeze wafts
The sun shines
Noon whispers
Asserting calm
Tractor distracts
A wader singing
Berries compete
And weed whips
Cobwebs adorn
Windows anew
Down the river
A boat awaits
Eve instructs
Bathers rejoice
As midnight sun
Detains nudes
Before a curtsy
Sign to retire
Oh, solitude
Urban traces fade.
PS. Images in the post (besides feature image): 1 – patches of clouds in the sky, 2 – tractor working in the fields, 3 – weed among redberry bushes, 4 – rowing boat, 5 – neighbouring saunas & 6 – some people I know sitting on the rooftop and cooling down between sauna sessions.
PPS. This is Country is a poem from Seasons Defined. Now you can’t say I didn’t tell you about this book. 🙂 Fresh poem next week. Happy Summer Reading!
