Summer Theatre

 

He sat close to the window;

writing, and watching summer mature.



As the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds

zipped and sipped at the feeders and flowers.



And the Sandhill Cranes

yodeled from nearby wetlands.



As the White Water Lilies

floated their purity upon the lake.



And White-tailed Deer raised

another generation of fawns.



As wheat, stretching straight and tall,

ripened green to gold in dense rows.


And fireflies flashed green-yellow lights

in the silky dusk of evening.



As frequent thundershowers

kept the heartland green.



And the window to his world offered

daily scenes of summer theatre.
