Colby Trail in Summer
Current mood: 
calm
There is a sweet and solemn place
away up in the canyon
along the ridge’s southern face
where the redroot’s blooming.
The air is hot and hazy thick
with the smell of summer,
the grass is ripe and sweet to pick
in gold and green and amber.
The insects murmer high and light
a humming and a popping
the sky is lit up low and bright
and peace is gently falling.
