Summer Sonnet

Honeysuckle vines, butterflies and bees
Red-orange sunset slides and disappears
You and I on front porch sipping ice tea
Sitting side by side after all these years

When I look into your eyes so deep blue
Our hands entwine and we lean in to kiss
A warmth engulfs my heart, you feel it too
Summer love and passion leading to bliss

The many years of dancing and playing
Moonlight and gentle breezes caress us
Familiarity serenading 
Desire rising from a lifetime of trust 

Under the heavens feeling heavenly
Secure that our love a lifetime will be
