Summer Love

Summer love (sonnet contest sample) Winter blues, gloom, fades as spring advances We're crazy in love on hot hazy days Summer love blooms with whispers and glances Caught in love's embrace as the willow sways Ensnared by love's frenetic energy Heart strings strumming to a Calypso beat We move with syncopated synergy passions swells rising from two lips in heat Diamond tipped waves shimmer, sending shivers Steamy heat rises on the cool blue lake Oil rubbed skin glistens, trembles and quivers Our senses come alive in passions wake Tethered together in honey'd repose As heat exchanges we superimpose May 6,2018
