August

A sunset casting long shadows over a rural landscape.

Hear me read
the poem as
an MP3 file.

Watch me read
the poem as
an MP4 file.

August starts to shade a bit towards shade,
Upon the cusp of full tide and retreat,
Grace, poised upon a turning point of time,
Unwilling to welcome what it can't decline,
Sweet season no foreboding can defeat.
Though evenings earlier begin to fade.
