The summer light at dusk
Lies in layers of color
On a farmer’s fallow field

From blue through white
Finally to bronze the hues
Fill the misty air

A single tree
Rises above the level ground
All its limbs reaching for the sky

And when a soft wind
Passes upon its solitude
It listens to the rustlings
Of its own leaves

as beautiful as the dusk
as soft as the color
as rich as the field

As pure as the white
As layered as the hues
As feathery as the air

As energetic as the tree
As solid as the ground
As broad as the sky

As smooth as the wind
As serene as the solitude
As whispering as the rustlings
As lively as leaves
