A Midsummer Night's Moment: Poem

 










"A Midsummer Night’s Moment"

Romance was in the air. In a light cotton dress Lounging in the swing chair Out of the princess distress And reading the press, She decided to relax, From current events, and other facts. The smell of just picked flowers Was giving a headache. Birds and insects were noticeably quiet. When listen in closely, She almost heard the waves. The beachcomber themes, Stocked among the ocean’s dreams, Surrounded by collection of shells, Pieces of sea glass, And wooden box of old letters Contented the mystery’s tracers. Summer leisure – One page at a time for pleasure. The closest neighbors – Lizards and birds. The fewer the words – The more understanding, Except for noisy mosquitoes. Pale light from the windows Was just enough for reading. Summer project got a devotee follower, In the middle of the summer. It was a good start and a promising beginning. The research work became an eye opening.
