[Stylist] new poem Summer's Book

Sat Aug 27 03:14:07 UTC 2022

I really like this the one, Annie. Since it doesn't come through via email — they always look like one stanza — is this divided or all one stanza.
In it I can very much feel how August is that pause of Summer holding her breath right before we plunge in to Autumn.

Summer’s Book
By Ann Chiappetta

August is
A perpetual ending
Of wilting haiku blossoms
Of Heat and drought and rain on wind chimes
Of crisp leaflets capturing autumn’s promise and
    open fields of earth’s parchment
awaiting to harvest and scribe
richness into Nature’s book with stories of Winter white.

Note: this was last weeks Writing Works Wonders writing prompt using the words August, heat, drought, and wind chimes
