A July<br />
Matinee<br />
White cottonwood tracers perform amidst the warm afternoon sun,<br />
Appearing as fleet acrobats illuminated by the orb’s spotlight.<br />
A white butterfly, camouflaged within daisies, flies erratically,<br />
Dancing with the helicopter flight of beetles with iridescent heads.<br />
Drifting billowy clouds dim the sun’s bright light,<br />
Offering an intermission greeted by a crescendo of cicada cheers.<br />
Lengthening shadows of dreadlocked willows slowly advance,<br />
Gently caressing the moistness of cool green grass.<br />
<strong>The</strong> sun warms skin cooled in the shade,<br />
Slowly sneaking beneath the floating tarp of a large umbrella.<br />
As angular sunbeams outline the foundation of a spider’s web,<br />
Constructed to provide the catch for an eight-legged gourmand.<br />
