summer – C & K

Food Van

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

caught by the summer
lost in a Monet painting
a honey-laced voice
propped up on a numb elbow
a delightful happenstance

longing for Winter
living in the matrix of
Summer and the heat

a soft summer dawn
almost perfectly moody
melting of colours

Summer’s Secret shrine
Sailing on the sea slowly
Sun setting sunshine

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.

Burning Summer heat
gems and jewels curl around your skin
A Poseidon kiss

Oblivious to reality
aqua sea, premonitions
A snake coils around your arms and hips

Something falls away
the past and the present meet
Your goblet drops, rolls

All the glory, love
you wanted to deny the sad truth
Love, a life no more

Bordeaux Kiss

Summer heat
the sea and the sand
something

sweet to eat
while watching the world
and dreaming

of those lips
a Bordeaux watermelon
laced kiss

with strawberry
and cream hues of winter
about those hips
