Notes About The Poem

When Summer Is Gone

Shy clouds drift over a sea of blue satin, Remembering to breath in the used to be soothing Sunlight gentling the truth, kindling hopes Who reflect on the new, Listening to aching raindrops, glistening And bursting through the promises On a still, clear afternoon, While endless notes of light, Fall like heady bliss, on the moments When birds test their voices, Crooning, lyrics like the wind’s breath Pouring over the heart, Lighting the thoughts with powerful images, Blessing away the doubts, the dread, Feelings unfolding inside the soul who has bled Grieving for summer, who has gone out of my head, As autumn sinks in around my life, Crispy and quiet, like the leaves who dance, Remembering, reflecting, resenting the past’s lavender kisses, with all its plummeting wishes.
