summer – C & K

Endless Summer

this endless summer
Aloe Vera soothes the skin
The kettle screams, ” Tea! “
rolling on and off the lounge
napping while watching Netflix

an extreme heat day
social media pollutes
my dear optimism

Sunlit afternoon
Banana Chairs and Boho
The smell of the sea

a van by the sea
fish and chips from Flip and Flap
a little business
The Seagulls waited for this
day to feast on stolen chips

Too much sun,
not enough shade.

Flowers in bloom,
too many colours.

Too much light,
not enough darkness.

Birds sing and dance,
too many songs.

Too much Summer,
not enough Winter
to take my heart,
make it cold,
feel the chill,
the Autumn feel.

a soft summer dawn
almost perfectly moody
melting of colours

A summer dress in winter
Sometimes green, sometimes black;
never brown or orange.

Unconventional stockings
A contrast of colours that stands out;
offensive to the conservatives.

Elegant and controlled
Walking in every nature season;
odd looks fail to offend.

A daydream within a dream
Falling madly in love with the park bench;
continuing the journey.

The summer winds sing
of scented night vision scenes
shimmering softly.

The turning began
summer left us on our own
Shedding no sad tears
as grey turns to silver snow
Melting slow on our faces

After the joyous Spring
comes the ferocious Summer.

All fire and burning forests.

Yet Autumn will come for us,
and then the Winter.

All quiet, reflective and dark.
