Reminders.
And afternoon yawns as sea gently lolls
in pillowed lull of low tide.
Clouds sag with drowse of white fuzz
on warm hillock-grass clifftop.
And sun sinks in shawled clover as cattle
milk-laden homeward slow swing
past river bank a-buzz with low swarms
of late hatched mate-hungry gnats.
And lust and lilt of summer will linger
while dusk striates luring skies
yet twilight chill creates mauves for
reminders as autumn moves in.

Oh i lazily walked that lane from low tide through the afternoon drinking in such painted atmosphere and felt the dusk advance the waiting winter's air as late hurry took me toward stoveside warmth.
Yep, felt this one poet. You sure can paint them Fay.
Delighted the words made your virtual walk more pleasant dear Dusk - - painted with pleasure I do assure you.
beautifully worded, a sublime depiction dear Fay:
'lust and lilt of summer
will linger
while dusk striates, luring skies
yet twilight chill, creates mauves
for: reminders'
Ah - - Sublime - - what a wonderful word to use for my posting today - - thank you so much L.B.

My Dear Fay,
A beautiful season indeed. Your choice of words to remind us that autumn is moving in is superb. Thank you for sharing.
