This is summer, then early dawn rays shimmering upon the cottonwood leaves dance underneath the southern breath of a fresh break of wind Leaves glimmering hello to sol sun, dancing their way in full reel, escorting the day with red-winged blackbird song Willows and olive trees join in dip, bend, sway, cattails hold the choir all dressed in splendid black epaulets of red in blaze Sing to me the morning song before summer’s passion melts my soul before noon finds me napping beneath the oak on the hill. |

Sing to me the morning song before summer’s passion melts my soul before noon finds me napping beneath the oak on the hill. Karilea, I find myself napping a lot around noon time.... Could it be because I stay up so late? LOL ![]() Hugs ![]() Ethel |

"Sing to me the morning song before summer’s passion melts my soul before noon finds me napping beneath the oak on the hill." This has to be one of the most beautiful verses I have read. Talk about lazy hazy summer days! Made me want to grab a book and run outside and read under a tree. Lovely lovely Karilea... ~Morning Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ ~If you haven't heard the sunset, |

K, the images are incredible, the flow perfect. I love the words and the feel. There you have it...I guess I better venture out this morning before the afternoon sun calls me to nap. Just beautiful! Into the library with this treasure! Patricia |

"Sing to me the morning song before summer’s passion melts my soul before noon finds me napping beneath the oak on the hill." Seriously, I am in need of help...I read the last two lines and thought it meant death...what is wrong with me? Anyway, it was beautiful. Susan C. |
