Summer Day

The days went on and frittered away

Dragged on slowly the way my fingers caress your skin

Lightning seared across the sky

Dimmed by clouds the way my lace meets your eyes as I move so

The faucet lets water escape

Fat droplets fall heavily the way my lips covers the distance across your neck

Car bass on blast

Booms amplifying the way your heart cranks up with every touch

Crystalline mist clung on window panes

Until beads avalanches down the way your excitement condenses on your skin

The crowd shouts with mounting energy

Just take the shot already the way your lips lock mine with growing urgency

The sound of sand skittering on a marble floor

When meat met the flame the way our bodies sear together

Construction season in full swing

Deafening hammering the way we move as frenzy takes over

A jogger pants along the way

Footfalls echoes in the quiet of the night the way you drum your power through

Peals of delight effervescent

released by contact in water the way we reach satiety

Cricketing sawing through a lazy afternoon

As dogs slumber the way we quietly bask in each other’s dissipating heat.
