Summer Love
The hot days of Summer have come and gone
Its longest days have become a dark night
The season spent to now look back upon
Find love was a shadowy wing in flight
A kiss was met beneath the blistered sun
Passion filled sunsets claimed its evening light
A star streaking across the sky is done
A fiery flash now vanquished was bright
In the Summer of heat, a love was found
And hands of lovers held caressed a rose
That opened and bloomed then fell to the ground
Where crumbled petals now lay in repose
The long days of Summer came to an end
As Autumn has come, its cold will descend
5/7/18 contest Summer Love
