Perfect Summer Dream

Perfect Summer Dream

A Poem by Allen Johnson Jr
"

A Mole, a Water Rat Idle in a boat.

"

A summer day...

The river slumbers,

Lulled by the sunny drone and hum of life.

A Mole, a Water Rat

Idle in a boat.

Mole, the sunlight baking on his fur,

Gazes deep into the lushness

Of the riverbank.

Ratty pauses on his oars to watch

A cool green circle swirl away...

A dragonfly stops time.

Eternal moment.

Perfect summer dream.

I really enjoyed the peaceful flow with which you wrote this, however, the imagery is what stands out the most. Well done!
