The rising tide

Time passes away Waiting for stars to come out Too tired to sleep

Pink and blue clouds churn Ivy grows animated As I stare transfixed

Lethargic Summer Wasted in Self Consciences This Mortal Coil

Sunrise to Sunset Summers heavy breath lingers As Robins fly by

Evening shades of green Summer passes with musings As hot thick air hangs

Shade evaporates As passing clouds intertwine Obscuring the scene

Sitting in the shade Caterpillar eggs open Dreaming of flying

Caterpillar eggs Summer Metamorphosis Hidden among leaves

The smell of cut grass And wind chimes play in the air Summer reflection

As budding twigs leaf How long are the lives of leaves? Before fading gold
