Summer Memories

 

Memories of you

Are as sweet

As a sun-drenched blackberry.

 

I know you only

By your summer smile

And your moonlit eyes.

 

I tasted the honey

Of your soul and

The nectar of your mind.

 

The time was short

And we touched deep;

Beyond the words that we uttered.

 

We played an unspoken

Game of love and danced

On the edge of a rainbow.

 

Would it be that all memories

Be as sweet if we succumb

To the ;joy of a moment?

 

To say the best that we know

And to see the eyes

Only with our hearts?

 

As I live on,

The colors of my life

Will know a new glow

 

For you have shared

With me the beauty

That is you.
