Gabriel pointed me to a poem in 32 Poems Magazine by Jessica Murray: Elegy for Summer.
I think it’s beautiful.
I need to start pimping some of the other great poems I’ve read lately, including ones at Kaleidowhirl, Sunspinner, New Hampshire Review, and Three Candles.
Edited to add: She used “gelid,” though. Is that allowed?
Thanks for the link. Good poem.
