On warmed grass amongst the daisies
watching bees dance on clover
I threaddelicate chains of buttercups
watching cotton-clouds pass over.

With silk blades tickling bare feet
cross - legged in an emerald dale
listening to a sweet chorus of birds
I study butterly wings in detail.

time belongs only to the distant past
the present is a gift I long to keep
so I will linger in my pocket of summer
until the sun and I fall asleep.
