Day: June 22, 2019

body oiled and tan
sunning by the swimming pool
sun glasses look cool
stealing hearts this sizz’ling day
breaking hearts this simm’ring night

clothes drape grey boulders
sun beats down on brisk blue lake
summer skinny dip
the joy of the naked plunge
hot fun in the summer time

mugs of cold gold beer
baby backs on the bar-b
backyard summer feast
red potatoes with grilled corn
it all smells so delicious

soft sand warms bare toes
love as fresh as ocean breeze
summer at seaside
kisses hot as sizz’ling sun
send us over the rainbow

like a tempest was your passion
I was swept up in its force
but lightning has stopped crashin’
this storm has run its course

my thoughts grow cloudy grey
my eyes are now steady rain
my heart shivers cold today
your bad weather has brought pain

the warm winds may return
as should the clear blue skies
but my frozen heart will yearn
for your wild and stormy eyes
