summer love
Simply in the sun-warmed grass all day
we'd sit, and talk about some useless ****
And in my jeep I drove you to the bay
to watch the sunset while we shared a bit
of wine. We laid down in that cooling night;
I watched your gentle lips move when you talked.
I told you that I never felt as right,
as when we kissed. My fingers interlocked
with yours; I brushed your beachy hair away
and shared a kiss that may have been our last.
I held you in my arms until the day
peeked through. We knew the sunrise soon would pass
like this. And though we think it isn't fair
departing is the summer's balmy air.
