As my sun sets
elsewhere it glows bright and hot
& in another somewhere it rises
fresh and new
in soft pastels or bright blushing hues
Now as this plot seeps into dusk
I whisper a missive along
May the lost sun rays this day
shine and flutter on you
where & whenever you are
May the breezes carry my calming palms
to rest in the stillness with you
To quiet your worries
& sleep in your soul for a second or two
May your warming sun deliver
this warming touch I send
May it carry a kiss as well
gently placed wherever you most desire
my lips to dust your skin
& stay however long you need
My lips are still and forever yours
the sunshine knows
Our little star’s brightness
shares with you,
my mind full of thoughts
& the wish to listen for you.
So go outside
Soak in the sun
& catch my essences of my love.
