The Flare of Summer's skirt

The full flare of Summer’s skirt is festooned with the embroidery of Bugloss, Water Lillies, Brown Eyed Susans, and  Pink Clover to mention a scant few. 

Her sirens lured us to  ponds’ and meadows' edge this morning, completely altering the course of our day: up county road thirty six, north of Westport. I am not sure if we will ever escape this land, for I have not tied myself to a mast, nor have I filled Alanagh and Molly’s ears with wax. How could I possibly do that, and miss the morning pregnant with bird song, day- life opening, and warming in the broadening light? How could I ever want to escape the captivity of bluebirds?
