Frozen flavors
on a stick,
delicious and
so very sweet

Orange, cherry
watermelon,
take your pick
it can’t be beat

Something cold
and so refreshing,
on your lips
to quell the heat

Then we’ll share
popsicle kisses,
my all time favorite
summer treat

While mesmerized by the sunset
on a paint by number sky,
my brush followed
watercolor curves blending
into the outline of my heart

When a cool twilight breeze
swept me away on
soft pastel dreams
of you and me beneath a
full moon’s glow

Sharing a summer evening
filled with our deepest desires,
counting starlit kisses
under a velvet heaven’s
shimmering canvas

Till over my shoulder
a pink hyacinth morning smiled
and I surrendered to the dawn
of a love that is a new masterpiece,
each and everyday
