Original
Rating: Gen
Notes: poetry (villanelle)
The bide of summer leaves me jestless,
humour brief.
The ache for autumn leaves me restless.
The lingering heat, trough and crestless,
begs belief.
The bide of summer leaves me jestless.
The yearn for arbours, cone and nestless,
nut-cheeked thief.
The ache for autumn leaves me restless.
The baking sun bores east and westless,
sans relief.
The bide of summer leaves me jestless.
Parade calabash, cored and guestless,
smoky sheaf!
The ache for autumn leaves me restless.
Spring and winter pass smooth and testless,
without grief,
But bide of summer leaves me jestless,
and ache for autumn leaves me restless.
