August feels right: days warm,
sun on my back -
but this morning I found
sudden toadstools
in the tall grass, their thin
stems and hoods of paper,
grey, fragile like Degas
tutus, as a frayed reminder
of cold days to come.

GuiltyPleasureover 10 years ago...beautiful. I loved the reference to Degas tutus. A five.
Remecover 10 years agoAh, yes, the line between seasons...always so full of mixed images. You captured one of them quite well.
Neonuroticover 10 years agoLove the comparison!
This summer I found a mushroom the size of large grapefruit. It was heavy and imagined it was full of earwigs!
