A Midsummer Night's Memory

The Whippoorwill are calling In the late hours of the night. As lazy, summer breezes waltz slowly With white gossamer curtains At the window in the moonlight. The heady, sweet, scent of Honeysuckle and new mown hay Are this evening's intoxicating perfume. Soft, creamy, white moonbeams Lie entwined with Lacy, black, tree bough shadows On the iron bed in this old room The locust and the katydid, The crickets and the frogs Orchestrate a melodious lovers serenade That fills our sleepy repose with song.

"JJ" Judy Johnston 1996
