Fragrance of roses
Wafting on summer breezes
Despite all the thorns
Fragrance of roses
Wafting on summer breezes
Despite all the thorns

Determination
Deep within the hunter’s eyes
Goal fixed in focus
Dog yapping all night;
Owner seems oblivious;
Or just ignorant.
Summer of heatwaves
All the fields turning to brown
Food prices rising

A sudden movement
Stealthy summer creatures hunt
In the undergrowth
