Summer’s Romance

I can smell summer in your hair 

Organic 

Like soil newly unearthed 

By the rains 

Your skin 

Humid 

Slick from playing in the clouds too long

That sank too low 

Pushed by the breeze 

Off the coast 

Were you alone?

Your eyes 

Still flicker with a firefly's dance 

Did I ever have a chance 

To compete with Summer's romance 

I'll share you 

I'll share you with the sun 

And kiss your skin 

I'll share you with the ocean 

To soothe your heart again

And I'll wrap around your body 

With the wind
