John Gondolf Poet Rhyme

The Warmth and Passion of Spring

The sun descends in western sky
     as warbler trills his lullaby.
The warm spring breeze blows through your hair
     as scent of jasmine fills the air.

You stroll along a country lane,
     and listen to spring’s sweet refrain.
This warm spring day has come to end
     as thoughts of love again impend.

The thoughts of passion tangled sheets,
     and whispers only night repeats;
the secrets only lovers know 
     when passion leaves their hearts aglow.

And in the morn the sun’s display;
     another bright and lovely day.
A sign of Mother Nature’s flair;
     a sign that spring is in the air.

John Hamilton April 10, 2018 at 12:36 PM A fantastic write John, reminds me of summer breeze seals and croft for some reason, that means this write is really good, congrats on another win! John Gondolf April 10, 2018 at 12:44 PM Thanks so much, John, I appreciate it. Perhaps it's the scent of jasmine in the air that reminds you of "Summer Breeze" one of my favorite songs from the early 70's. John
