Wells of Summer.

Fay Slimm.

 

Nostalgia

 

Sun-honied the cobbles of dew-wet round
shine with past hurry of hobnail haste.       


Hot glare of noondays shed need for shade            
while remembered labourers drowsed.


Ticks of antique kitchen clocks still sound
hectic times of committed engagement.


Deep the nostalgia of wells as youth faced
work yet willingly drunk for long hours.

    From noon's hot glare shed's shade spills as morning path shines with hope and light. Commitment is noticed from busy time. During summer, wells sink more and become childish. Love's short lasted visions are amazingly noticed in summer wells but still we feel long essence of love from such brilliant and excellent poem shared here.
