I Float in a Sea of Green- A Midsummer Poem

A poem for Midsummer-- written at the beginning of July, the images are from June, 2020..........

I float in a sea of green
through cool dapple
and sultry gaps
splashed by colour tipped waves
gently rocked by flower scent, over
deeper eddies of humid earth, decay,
lulled by a thousand tones
of insect drone
and whispering
leaves.
