Temperate Reverie…
The optimum daylight hours of summer
Flowers salsa on unexpected nor'easter
Including one and all
Ahead of the reducing sun
Take to the air, soar tiny wings
Reminiscent of love that by no means fall short
Darkness starts to arouse
To a chorus line that is the hours of darkness
A leaping insect jumps, unhurriedly
Song birds shrieks, near to the ground
Stand out, excel crimson moon
Till very last you grow fainter from view
Have the sense of hearing the ocean in cry
Where the Hirundinidae engage in recreation and expire
Starlight in the miasma
Shine unsteadily Lampyridae, alight
Continue, stay temperate reverie
Underneath the tallow in the heavens
