Balmy days             bound in Arcadia's summer; lightly whispered             secrets, drifting beside forgotten pathways             sheltered in the umbra of nooks and hedgerows,             breathlessly confide Stolen dreams             awaken sultry mornings where love erupts             from ripened seed to bloom, eliciting             a fondness and a fawning that summer's end             is fated to consume Timeless moments             captured for eternity within ring-             binders of the living trees, Arcadia's             old sentinels take pity on lovers             lorn of keepsake memories Summer fades             yet ever in Arcadia, summer shields             the land from autumn gloom and lovers lorn             will ever have a place here, where summer             keeps a vigil on their tomb

Summer in Arcadia
Balmy days             bound in Arcadia's summer; lightly whispered             secrets, drifting beside forgotten pathways             sheltered in the umbra of nooks and hedgerows,             breathlessly confide Stolen dreams             awaken sultry mornings where love erupts             from ripened seed to bloom, eliciting             a fondness and a fawning that summer's end             is fated to consume Timeless moments             captured for eternity within ring-             binders of the living trees, Arcadia's             old sentinels take pity on lovers             lorn of keepsake memories Summer fades             yet ever in Arcadia, summer shields             the land from autumn gloom and lovers lorn             will ever have a place here, where summer             keeps a vigil on their tomb
