The Lips My Lips Have Kissed

Summer was here I enjoyed it not
Heat and humidity did not hit the spot
Spring now a different thing_in spring_love
Slightly warm days flashing of color, Dove
Blooms from bulbs_so many shades of green
Upon the trees_renewal of all seen
Fall is almost here banishing summer
Shorter days_cooler nights_welcome color
When winter comes blowing fall asunder
Barren trees_cold days even nights colder
Then the memory of the flavored kiss
Rose flavored kiss under the rose trellis

In the first half, all is green and hot. In the second half, it's cold and barren. That kiss, I'm thinking because it's "rose flavored", it's a reminder that summer has just passed. It's a nice touch. Enjoyed.

Sara, Nice. It seems that we always find enjoyment in past pleasures we neglected to appreciate at the time. Love, Will
