    Poem
    July

    THERE is a month between the swath and sheaf
    When grass is gone
    And corn still grassy;
    When limes are massy
    With hanging leaf,
    And pollen-coloured blooms whereon
    Bees are voices we can hear,
    So hugely dumb
    This silent month of the attaining year.
    The white-faced roses slowly disappear
    From field and hedgerow, and no more flowers come;
    Earth lies in strain of powers
    Too terrible for flowers:
    And, would we know
    Her burden, we must go
    Forth from the vale, and, ere the sunstrokes slacken,
    Stand at a moorland's edge and gaze
    Across the hush and blaze
    Of the clear-burning, verdant summer bracken;
    For in that silver flame
    Is writ July's own name--
    The ineffectual, numbed sweet
    Of passion at its heat.

    Michael Field
