TUITION Poets Corner Missing Summer (An Edwardian Idyll) by Richard Labram© e vagaries of fortune have stolen the summer and spoiled entirely that e ortless life of endless lunches on riverside verdants with the music of water cleansing all care; when unbounded blue and seamless days instilled with ne vintage the in nite passion that made love ourish in cool cotton dresses with so naked feet and bright golden tresses. Wine With Lunch by Richard Labram© e sun rolled in from a distant novel, lost its place, and condensed on a cold glass. e contents erupted, spraying paragraphs over blank pages. A warm breeze proofread a chapter, fanning mock orange to swoon from the table. Far-o , a dog’s bark shu ed leaves and from somewhere in the clouds echoed the sound of a falling book.
