Blog of the Day -- Monday June 27th

spring baits us
as teasing soft winds
gentle rains
draw us into
the heart of summer

warm sunlight dapples
through trees
drunk on rain

our backs
question mark against the bark
as we giggle, whisper and
giggle again

summer ponders our love
shading kisses
building green bowers
where our hidden love
grows

and wanes
as angry clouds carelessly
hurl lightening bolts
recrimination, fury, loss

tendrils of green
reach out to inhabit my grief
howls of anguish
tear the azure sky
and summer
remains
