DEEP SUMMER, by HARRIET GRAY BLACKWELL

First Line: The sun flings golden coins of heat
Last Line: There is no hint of snow beyond.
Subject(s): Summer
The sun flings golden coins of heat
Through blooming myrtle trees to make
Mosaics on the grass. The late
Pears hang like moons above the creek.
Old vines hold clustered scuppernongs
Spilling fragrance on breath-like wind,
White butterflies are clouds with wings,
There is no hint of snow beyond.
