beautiful ladies in elegant carriages and gondolas arrive at the summer solstice ball
a girl in diamonds and her half-sister with a ball of crystal glass observe unseen Sally with the garden clippers not far from the tree with the shifting foliage quickly enchanting a large toad by balanced driving motions at his large head
I sit up stairs, in between the lovely hall and the balcony as sophisticated ladies arrive streaming and the hall fills quickly their diamonds, glass and crystal shimmering, dazzling, to blind me, so observe in digital, strangers, unseen who balanced skinny glasses on their foreheads
and one girl child down there with a large toad cupped in her hands walking to the front to an enchanted stone at last the toad was balanced on her forehead and her half-sister turned it into a charming, yet graceless child of thirteen on this, the all perfect evening in summer
