HEAT.
The sun in lemony vapours
of morning dilates
pale in dawn's haze.
Beaks of small birds
sip mossy-stone dew pure as milk
while June's day stirs.
Sky's bubble-shine
wraps summer round rooted thrust
as weed vies with vine.
Silky gossamer
lies on wet grass which candled air
dries with a promise.
Sounds of waking
appear as ferns droop with unfurl
for summer's heat waits.
