Summer Romance

Summer Romance

A summer romance warms the chill of Fall,
enticing lips to touch in deep caress.
You hear the rhythmic song of crickets’ call
which quickens nature’s fiber in your breast.

Days are long and life moves in slow fashion
with dripping sweat of yearning in your thighs.
Sizzling night scenes of unbridled passion,
drift on flowered, perfumed air and fireflies

Heatwaves entice many lustful notions
as flames grow higher from those sudden storms.
Lightning bursts electrify emotions
and heart’s desire is ever growing strong.

A summer romance rises in degrees
tempting love that cannot be denied.
On moonlit shadows and a sultry breeze
the blasé mind is truly mystified.
