First Line: Scent of new - mown hay
Last Line: Sickle moon with a bright star cuddled close.
Subject(s): Summer
Scent of new-mown hay,
Golden fields of wheat and oats,
Sudden downpour of mud and water
As cloudbursts hit the mountainside;
The pink of wild roses, white of mariposa,
Weary teams down to the creek for water,
Canopy of stars that can almost be touched,
Sickle moon with a bright star cuddled close.
