Summer's
Adieu
~
Piercing
velvet
membrane
of
night
Stars
entreating
joy
be
expressed
Sparkling
gems
of
celestial
light
Firmament,
exquisitely
dressed
![](bd_adorno4.jpg)
Delivered,
a
sliver-crescent
moon
Mesmeric
smile
broadly
beaming
A
wistful
sound,
a
soulful
tune
Perhaps
a
winsome
angel
dreaming
While
in
the
distance
thunder
rolls
Everything
now
becoming
clear
Lightning
illuminates
tender
knolls
Tempered
tempest
moving
near
![](bd_adorno4.jpg)
Raindrops
plop,
refreshing
splashes
Indian
summer
drinks
her
fill
Lavender
vein
of
lightning
flashes
Searing
the
onyx
sky,
until
.
.
.
Delivered
from
an
autumn
squall
Radiant
stars
express
their
joy
Night's
jewels
shimmer,
enthralling
all
Heavenly
lights
in
God’s
employ
