#summers
I remember, back when summers were in their prime.
I remember, back when happiness cost less than a dime.
I remember, when vacations were still fun.
I remember, when nothing hit like playing in the sun.
I remember, back when I was still nine.
I remember, back when we didn't care about time.
I remember, when the ice-cream vendor strolled the streets.
I remember, when he brought cool cures for the scorching heat.
I remember, back when we used to admire our scraped knees.
I remember, back when we used to return home in soiled tees.
I remember, when our best friends came in plastic and tin.
I remember, when we laughed away sorrows alongside our kin.

It all led up to this moment,
The dedication we casted our ambitions in,
The triumphs we rooted our adversities in,
It brought us to the next chapter of our lives,
And for you I'm forever grateful to,
Thanks for joining me on my journey.
The California dream is what we were living,
From the adventurous summer splendor,
To the heartfelt bittersweet departures,
Those unified celebratory cheers,
It was summer 21' of unprecedented affection,
Onto the next phase of life we go where unknown possibilities lie dormant,
Here's to the discoveries to come,
The gratitude to bestow,
& memories we'll create.

I miss old summers
barren streets with flats so hot
scorched our faces and tanned
our legs and races.
It was simple simply sipping
mugs of sharbat and aamras
and cool drinks
made under the small roof I call home.
Not much on television screens, we sat
cross-legged on floor
playing games that require no brains
and stitched clothes for the dolls
from rags thrown away by mother.
She scolded us
making us stay quiet
handing down her books, old comics
to read and learn and to stop whispering
stories of action and myths
gods and fairies,
for the heat is too much
the sun is too bright
and the sweat on our foreheads
tickle our skin
for we were incorrigible
and never quiet.
As I sat down and read
I imagine yellows in the land of gold
colours dissolving into swirls
my reverie takes me to future unknown
thinking about how much I'll score
just to go outside, step outside
and make my fortune grow.
But the sun has now set
my friends are all outside
they have stories to tell too
mine remain unchallenged, unquestioned,
oh my mother fake-wept
on my injuries, and her fear
so unresolved of my mind kept in darkness
that my grandma starts to lull
the same old stories that her grandma sang her to sleep
far, far away from the land of gold
epiphanies too much for a seven year old.

i believe breathing in an air of love
would be the same as gasping in the
beckoning sweetness of a crimson rose on a
fresh summers day

DEAR PENPAL PEOPLE, our reality is covering the stashes of our unrealistic fantasies:}
take me away wherever you say
I am prone to your plead and dismay
hold me tight under the bright
just where we are undercover out of the hideous sights
pull me another and linger on me and my covers
for what will you deprive me of your taste of winters
and your shine of summers

In our stroll of a charmed neighborhood-
we came upon a forest green garden arch,
how the crisp white hydrangea
blooms framed it so glorious,
so abundantly,
a vision for dreams to recall,
to those desponding-
this is a balm for their
wounded thoughts,
and for lovers rejoiced in
young union,
as the graying man who
just mowed his lawn sleeps
in a hammock,
in summer snow's fragrance
of no cares.

Her eyes blossom of frosty summers
kissed in gentle storms
of cocoa and honey

Supreme things
are extremely
destructive
when you are
in anti-social
activity circle.
Super power concepts
are more
interesting while
a world war.
Super natural fats
are less impact full
when these are
summer's coldness
and white's foolishness
will come by talking
negative discussions.

I wish there was magic in life
a little spark from a wand
with some spells out of a mouth
for good ones specials around
for bad ones only the drought
a little bit of magic dust
raising you to infinite heights
some Alvens and Ashrays
to play with, in summers heat
salamanders creeping in hallway
helping to keep the house warm
some pixies for autumns and springs
making garlands to beautify everything

Awake, the empty chamber of my mind
Calls out to paired and endless sky
The thought of you, a galloped course
The heels of your palm, struck with force
I cannot claim the earth as mine,
Just as she do flee the pick of eye
To wallow in sorrows of course divine
Calls out my heart, with verses hoarse.
I have but land to wander soon,
My passions held in heaven's sent
The ancient glass of sky full hue
The earth's embrace a lover's swoon
The soft edges of aluminium bent
These are the ways I'll remember you.

I lay back one summer’s afternoon,
and gazed up at the sky,
in a sunny meadow all flower strewn,
and watched the clouds go by.
I pondered life and other things,
a chance to contemplate,
growing old and all it brings,
and one’s impending fate.
What better way to clear your mind,
and keep your woes at bay,
and ponder on the things you find,
and while away the day.

We see everything but we bearly feel anything
Take a deep breath and sit under a tree
Welcome the summer's that bring something
Late night you keep yourself alive
Embrace different bodies in one day
As you see the sun ,you know it's five
Your heart beats are waiting for something
Even the angels bow their head's
Just close your eyes and think about nothing
You always find a comely face
To connect with you deeply
It's in your nature to run in every race
You listen what they said
Did They ever listened to you
Put this lesson into your head
The more you try for something
Just wait for the change
The more you have hope for something

Summer is
far as I think,
it flickered when
I blink
dreaming of
nostalgic
no winter, no autumn.
Maybe,you were written
in a next page,
I am the half
of your gut,
in every torn paper
and scratches.
How many times
it took a relevance?
like i'm dreaming
of "if you are mine?"

As I walk along
The sunny beach on a fine
Summer's day
Oh I see a young
Fine woman so fine
Her beauty is breathtaking
She has truly taken my
Breath away
As my heart starts
To race she starts
To pace towards me
Oh I'm truly deeply in love
Oh my love oh my heart
Skips a beat for love
Oh truly in love I am
Truly I'm in love
With the girl I truly love
Down on the summer's
Beach forever
I shall always remember
The beautiful girl
Down on the summer's
Beach.

A summer's day I
See her my love
So bright in the
Shining light
So perfect on
A beautiful summer's day
Her beauty so beautiful
Her hair so shining
She is truly for me
I'm truly for her
We embrace in
A magical kiss
In the warm
Summer's day
No other women
Could ever
Take her place
Inside my
Beating Heart
O I'll never
Forget that
Warm magical
Summer's day.

Summers Day.
I dream love
With you hunny
Holding you close
sitting beside you
Holding hands together
In a summer sun
a warm summer's
Day watching
The flowers blossom
As we sit closely
Hands held together
Our hearts embrace
In utter love on a fine
Summers day
as perfect as your smile
We embrace in a passionate
Kiss a perfect moment
Together in a perfect
Summers day.

My best buddy for my whole life lives far away...
But, if I need her...she's there for me anytime night or day....
Today I went on facebook ad saw her post....
It read "today my daddy past away".
My heart sank...and I messaged her right away.
I said "Bon Bon I am so very sorry and I love you"
I left another message shortly after the first one...
adding that I am here for her and if she needs to talk or text any time day or night just give me a call....with her its always alright.!!
After that I sat down and thought back to when we were in grade school. Bon Bon and I were together all of the time, laughing and playing and going to the 'valley" or as we called it 'down below".
We did so much with her parents that my parents did ever know.!!
Her parents were always so much more fun..
They took us to Fredricks of Hollywood in Hollywood in the summer of 8th grade.
Never did tell my parents we went there.....to look at **** suade underwear!!
We did get into trouble if we did something bad...like when we got all drunk one summer day and they found us past out.....
Ya then they got real mad.
Took us to eat to sober up and then I went home......which made me sad!!
One summer I ran away.....stayed at her house...for like 2 months..
They treated me as if I was their own kid.....
Like theyde get mad at me for all of the stupid **** I did.
Mike Vallee....
Im glad you were my best friends dad.....
*** for me you were the dad that I never had!!
Miss and love you for ever!!!!

Rolled money, old cards, empty bags tucked away in those
certain drawers
We'd P.A.T.T hard behind closed & locked doors
Party favors kept hidden during the day
& at night brought out to play
Soon as we started, it's one after other
Something I'll never share with my mother
Bits & pieces I might tell
Never the whole story, unless I want to hear her yell
Carrying on into the night
Our secrets kept well out of sight
Morning comes & off to work we go
No matter how ****** we felt, we'd always show
Can't let the habit take control
Even though our bodies were paying the toll
It was a decision we decided to make
A risk we were willing to take
Looking back on all those times
It helps me now, write some pretty awesome rhymes
Although we don't do that anymore
Since it doesn't make us feel like before
Plus I don't like repeating the past
But we did find some peace & we enjoy how long that tends to last
We have so many laughs & never ending fun
&& just to think it is only just begun

Walking alone on the hot road,
Though it feels like my body,
There isn't any longer me,
Under the burning sun,
It was just a figment,
Having left of me.
It has only let me be,
Shade of the poet I am,
I really am unknown for,
She came and life changed,
My lonely existence vanished.
