Memory of Summer
The languid warmth of a summer night
The sky glowing red at sunset
The cottage road is dry and dusty
No rain for ages
A field on both sides of the road
Golden oats in the field
Some of it tied into sheaves
Grains of life, gift from the earth
Nurtures the body and soul
The golden memory of summer
