Summer, Love

Sonnet #1

Summer, Love

My heart is over the moon, bright stars adore.

When time slows down, sweet glance is love close by.

Winter comes to an end and our spirits soar.

Singing sea and the music plays, a love sigh.

In the grass, warmth lies still and sweet, we met.

Now gone, the cold lonely wind blows a change.

Carefree breezes embrace those who do not fret.

The heart is one, a new rush surge, not rage.

Pure love so sweet, the air blossoms for thee.

Quickly, the sun rays spread a kiss, doth wait.

The sweetness is real and simple, you see.

A day at the seashore, swimming so late:

Blooms to celebrate the special reason.

That Summer should be our secret season.

  • Ghost Buster! We still see you even if Vocal has given you the ghosted feeling. I just wish they provided actual reasons for overlooking loyal writers so we could amend whatever it is that haunts them.
