an afternoon in mid-august

prairie wind pushes blanket air brushing skin
green leaves wave hello to blue blue sky
brown grass struggles to survive in unrelenting heat
bright sun bakes bare pavement
white moths flutter in the shadows
bikes shout past on pathway to summer freedom
colours serene surrounding house
tomatoes redden-ripen in watered garden
dried leaves litter ground with hints of autumn

learning to freeze-frame these shining moments
