Warm fleshy tongue
Savoring… in the 
Heat... 

As the canopy of trees part
into

Devotion to the Sun. 

Dozens of little yellows
and holly blues dance in the gentle wind
Innocent wings 
spilling secrets of summer desire.
A Monarch 
gracefully travels to the far beyond.

                                           beautiful.
