Rush of Summer's Breeze

Love songs softly flow on a Summer's breeze,
Lyrics trilled by doves in sweet melodies.
My vagabond heart meanders no more
for you've given yours to me, mon amour.*

Your kisses assuage my hunger and thirst.
Deluged by emotions, my heart shall burst.
A treasure, no longer beyond my reach.
A prayer answered when I did beseech.

You are the brightest star in midnight's sky
Keeper of my heart when I've need to sigh.
In celestial dreams; ever at my side,
where love abounds in incessant flood tide.

Come with me, my love, across tranquil seas
Sails swept by the mild rush of Summer's breeze



*mon amour: my love

Lovely, so genuine! I do love sonnets, plus this does not rehash old sentiments of love. Very fresh, amplifying the poem’s new love so described. A penning to be proud of. Hugs, sally
