Summer nights

The light-shadows of a long night
where the twilight slowly falls,
stealing through green paths
until silence falls on the earth. 

The warmth of this southern night
where the voices of the nightingale herald the summer
sweetly pierce the memories of childhood
as hearts meet in delirium.
