Summer Love

We both met at a party so long ago
 A breath of fresh air was in sight
 A moon glow at the edge of the end of the night
 As I looked deep within her eyes

 It was then I saw a future
 Filled up with hope for a brighter tomorrow
 We then took a walk through a barren pass
 Holding hands as we entered an enchanted forest

 To hear the sounds of a nearby flowing stream
 Rocks, sticks & stones
 It was both of us there left all alone
 Just couldn't resist for I had to kiss

 Her soft lips with beautiful brown tan
 Soon are very soul's intertwined and we were on the ground
 Yet didn't want to take it further onto the next level
 So we settled for necking and soft caressing

 For back then I had chosen the proper words to say,
 "She dances in a ring of fire, yet throws off it's challenge with a shrug".
 It was at that very moment I knew she was the one

 For I had fallen madly in love
 Summer love was the mere essence of my existence
 A true real love that would last
 Amidst the frolic of everyday brevity

 A love to impart to last throughout eternity
 The smell of her perfume when she walked into a room
 A décor of a sparkling array of illumination
 For a man, the feeling inside should have never been hidden

 One must first seek a higher source to be forgiven
 For true love is patient & so very kind
 Created & crafted in by a great designer
 My summer love was so very rich

 Filled with sweet sentiments of humble kindness
 To reflect on the mere beauty of her unique smile
 As to know all the great while
 Polished dresses with earrings that sparkle

 Eyes with blue & a hint of green
 I will treasure the red rose I plucked for her
 A time before the ocean sun set in
 A sparkling array of sweet blissful care

 None the worse to wear
 A heart of gold saturated with a soft kiss
 For I will ever miss your very touch
 When your not there

 Block parties with the fresh barbeque 
 Listening to classic music as Huey Lewis & The News
 What can end my summer blues ?
 The soft touch of her present beauty...

 For there will never be another lover
 Who would never wander
 But I'm often left to ponder ?
 Love that was so tender and never blind

 Yet you can't make your heart beat something it won't
 so she let go of my hand in search of the world
 Yet she was the fullness of love sent down by God from above
 Hope we can meet up yet once again ?
