Renga: Summer

Here is the renga so far. I think it has a couple more rounds in it:

Renga: Summer


A hot wind jostles
Dry wheat from its summer sleep
Sweat slides down my cheek [CG]

or are these tears? I have dreamt
a body turned green to gold [LB]

I have yet to lose
but losing comes in fast blows
to my consciousness [KT]

a body weary of heat
yearning for the sleep of fall [LK]

I enter the field
Merging with the golden wheat
One being, one self [CG]

Sorry I got so freaking Zen on the last stanza.
