SPINE POETRY – AUGUST

August is shaping up to be busy, so I’m adding two poems for the month now. Which one do you prefer? Offering #1:

Rising sun, August heat, gathering blue.
That old Cape magic.

(Michael Crichton, Andrea Camilleri, Lois Lowry, Richard Russo)

And offering #2:

Under the Tuscan sun, heat.
Women in their beds
Night birds.

(Frances Mayes, Bill Streever, Gina Berriault, Thomas Maltman)

I have my favorite…
