Summer's In the Air

As I walked this morning, so many sounds surrounded me
Summer's in the air
The birds sing love songs looking for their mate
Squirrels forage in search of those hidden treasures they buried last fall
A soft breeze is blowing through the budding trees announcing the arrival of a new day

Your voice, the most precious sound of all, fills me with warmth
It stirs passion, desire and longing
I feel peace and calmness
It’s intoxicating.  My head reels, my heart sings.  I walk as if floating on air
I’m as giddy as a schoolgirl with her first love

Summer's in the air, not only in the world around me, but also in my heart
