Premium MemberA Journey Fraught

I wander on a journey that may fail
The compass heading points me to true blue
Late Summer is the time I know so well
Accentuated by my thoughts of you

I wonder as I wander through the maze
What separated us as years sped by?
My love for you displaced by cruel malaise
Still on the journey asking myself why

Acceptance is the price I have to pay
I’ll try my best to take the good with bad
Accepting our relationship’s decay
Your absence from my life makes me so sad

To make the best of life remains the goal
My thoughts of you are balsam for my soul

Premium MemberMore Than a Summer Wind

Remember when we’d run across the park,
   chasing a paper kite in the summer wind?
We were young, light on our feet,
   and so eager to light up the dark.
Our love felt light as sugar,
   aimless, easy, full of wild ideas.
We’d make promises on the fly
   and build big futures out of thin air.
Three years have gone by now.
We’re not just bending with every breeze anymore.
We’re not chasing shadows or running wild—
   we’re walking the path together, steady and sure.
The kite finally came down to earth,
   but what we have now has real roots.
It’s quiet, deep, and grounded—
   so much stronger than the shallow thrill of where we started.

sleep... sweet soul of sun in f a l l hues, lost with ghost heart ~ as leaf of love frails... and I paint pandora's s t a r s in summer that never came...

Premium MemberSeptember’s End DHR

Wake me up when September ends
And autumn’s breath chills white wind
Closing denim door on Summer’s heat
With delightful crisp air of fall breeze

I had a summer I wish to forget
The pain of lost love and red regret
It was a fling that began with spring
I believe in love but love is a dream

So another holiday I’ll spend with me
Not something I hate until winter’s freeze
But that’s welcoming seasons of change
Divorcing summer and heat stroked brain

Putting a log in brick fireplace so warm
And dust off novels to read that charm
Not giving up on love that’s a thrill
But taking time to love me I feel

So this winter I want silver solitude 
I’ll write as therapy find my teal truth
Listen to my mahogany favorite tunes
Dancing alone at home in my birthday suit

Premium MemberLove to like, like you

Not strictly impossible to like when loved,
like you like to love..
love to watch you brush your long hair, 
especially when you don't necessarily
notice me liking you there. 

Like the swish of your air conditioner fans
and the cool breeze when they air condish..
so like long walks with a short blonde
when she's feeling loved, secure,
and unselfish.

Like the setting of your sun, the dimming of my day,
though another autumn's begun, still like to remember
our May. 

There! exciting anticipation of a summer night's kiss,
holding your hand, feeling the warmth on my skin-
leaves me wondering what's more right than you,
than us, 
than this.


Premium MemberHot Summer Day

It’s set to be the heat today
As it was yesterday - I fathom
The God still takes us for a clay
Can’t tell one hot day from another
The ghost of you comes down but I
Can’t see if you are here
Though I can feel your loving smile
As if you are so near
As you once were in happy days
We nonchalantly spent 
Maybe if I could see your face
I’ll be that ghost you met
In our lifetime’s recent past
Under your apple tree
We’ll meet again, revived from dust
Hot summer day it’ll be.

Premium MemberFuneral Of Fireflies

 I
as
a child,
loved night time.
Summer with fireflies,
made the nights very magical.
We love catching them and putting them in a glass jar.
The pretty jar was all aglow then morning came a sad funeral for all of them.

Premium MemberSunday Morning

Currently it’s nothing better
Than this summer Sunday morning
I imagined your love letter
Sent you my reply - it’s coming
Passing time that never waits
Heading further to your part
Of the country, landing straight
To the mailbox of your heart
You may open my reply
Or leave it unread and lost
In the depth of this July
Soon erased by winter frost..

Premium MemberLast Summer

Last Summer

We had a lot in the future, 
but you deleted all
You don't know what you are looking for
Passed our July into December, winter's home
Memory of our love and life
Turned into fog
I don't come again to Hungary
for you
I am not looking for your love anymore
Bye
Everything is gone

Premium MemberMemories linger

I remember the summer days of you.
Images flash before my eyes.
How I miss the warmth of you.

Premium MemberSummer

I feel love for Summer called Donna,
I listen all night ’cause I wanna.
I think she’s hot stuff,
my girl says “enough”!
But I couldn’t care less, I’m still gonna.

Premium MemberSummer of 79

Summer’s golden light,

Whispers of a bridge I crossed.

Memory holds it tight.

Premium MemberWoodland Amour

Laughing liquid lyrics ring
along rough pebbled passage;
dappled light filters lace leaves
kissing smiling lips and cheeks;
summer stain lingers where you touched
soft skin with wild berry fingers.

Premium MemberThere's beauty in a rainfall

I love an august shower.
All of nature thirsts for soothing hydration.
Summer draws to a close.
