Summer Song
Summer Song

Summer takes the cloak from spring,
dries it, throws it over shoulder,
stills the morning birdsong clamour,
paints the trees in darkened hue,
breathes a heated midday pause,
sings with constant cricket voice,
lingers in the long and limpid evening,
bakes another fruitful harvest.

Prompt: Personify summer in a poem.
