Summer's Heat

osmatic breezes awaken my mind within the breadth of summer's heat, they rise then fall through thoughts and memories entwined confined no longer, i see with these eyes you standing there on the edge of my dreams your breath falling softly against my flesh as my body whispers in silent screams yours moves about in arcs of shadow's thresh thunderous it echoes through the distance in a climax of unintended thought this romance ignites its own existence from a past unintentionally sought i linger in the heat of summer's plea where this love is more than a memory June 10, 2020 Summer's Heat Contest Sponsored by John Hamilton

Definitely a winner here. This is so well written. I have always struggle with this form as it feels very choppy to me when I write but you have penned something beautiful, smooth and flowing like a breeze on a hot summer's day. Best wishes in the contest.
