Summer Song [Poem of the Week]

Image by Tyra Phoenix 

Wanderer moon

smiling a

faintly ironical smile

at this

brilliant, dew-moistened

summer morning,—

a detached

sleepily indifferent

smile, a

wanderer’s smile,—

if I should

buy a shirt

your color and

put on a necktie

sky-blue

where would they carry me?


~ William Carlos Williams (1883 – 1963)
