Adrift With the Summer Breeze

It was a fortnight and two days ago when my spirit set adrift with the summer breeze; wandering the four corners of this earth trying hard my curiosity to please. Searching out the very meaning of life while wearing holes in the soles of my shoes; my curiosity ever seeking the truth, and still my thoughts wander back to you. Summer breeze fills my sails billowing against the sky of blue; guiding me across life’s uneven swales, and leading me right back to you. I miss the softness of your warm caress; I long to hold you in my arms; to feel your tender lips on mine, and share in the magic of your charms. Summer breeze fills my sails billowing against the sky of blue; guiding me across life’s uneven swales, and leading me right back to you. My darling I will never leave again no matter how the summer breeze may blow; you are the very meaning of my life; for eternity I will love you so. Summer breeze fills my sails billowing against the sky of blue; guiding me across life’s uneven swales, and leading me right back to you. August 4, 2018 Contest; Summer Breeze Sponsor: John Hamilton
