Summertime
“...spread your wings
And take to the sky...”Gershwin/Heyward
Summertime
sun stood still today
earth tilted sun high at noon
begins summer joy
sun moon and stars as us’al
still rise in the east set west
all is well sky wide as is
space wonders merrily spin
life breathed the moment
exhaled for another one
tilt reverse we brace
