An August Noon
by Ray Bradbury
One day, you discover you are alive.
Explosion!
Concussion!
Illumination!
Delight!
You laugh,
you dance around,
you shout.
But, not long after,
the sun goes out.
Snow falls,
but no one sees it,
on an August noon.
As featured onThe Daily Gardener podcast:
Words inspired by the garden are the sweetest, most beautiful words of all.
