The End of Summer

The gush and glee 
Of summer therapy
Sieged me, in her 
Carefree ascension.

That goddess sun
Possessed me, warmed 
my wings, healed my soul,
Drained the sadness out of me.

We linked like lovers
In a sacred field of flowers
Until I stumbled, she needs
To be free, she left me…

A few last halcyon days, to know
She loved me in her beautiful way.
