Jeanne Mcgee Poet Free verse

The Rose of Summer

Hello full moon of Junes' Gemini
Strawberry delicious
You are the rose of summer to some

I swim languorously on my back
Floating up to you on earths' heated vapors
Gliding through cotton ball clouds

Mist swirling around my outstretched limbs
I gaze up to see your dreamy round face
Stars hidden by your luminescence

I turn to submerge below your universal view
Playing peek-a-boo with the maiden
Her smile holding me through the night tide
