Description
It is refreshing these days of spreading capitalism and colorless urban life to read lines of poetry that insist on 'summer music' of talking about trees, with attentiveness and affection. His feeling toward the natural world is genuine--but hardly naive. Looking at the branches he also looks 'in the dark, in mind.' 'I notice the glow of the light-green, ' this poet says.
