indigo summer 2011

...my favorite season and a yearning mood...

Indigo Summer

Central city scene
Soft morning silence, dusky rose following a
nightlong rain
Colors as fresh as this new August month
slowly creeping into a world still first light quiet
Breakfast by the window
ground parched tan under the deck
dry earth underneath the rain sprinkled leaves of the trees

Lunch at the restaurant at the mall at the
end of the line
Bright colors splash

in the windows
of the house
at the end
of the street
at the edge
of the park

cloudless skies and southern california sizzle

Scene at the beach
hot sand, sparkling sand
wet sand and breaking waves
a night still empty white and hopeless
longing for dawn
waiting in hope for hope
