poem of the day August 12 

Evolution

of summer

Devolution

of light

Lazy dogs

barely barking

at young deer

who have lost

their spring spots

Days losing time

but still gaining heat

just in time

for an army of 

singing crickets 

beginning their

grand happy march

Zip-A-Dee-Doo Dah

Zip-A-Dee Day

plenty of sunshine

on a mid-summer day
