The brush of a summer wind plays carelessly through my hair.
Nothing compares to the scorching sun,
Days without a care.
I relish in the brutal heat, wanting time to freeze right now.
Lying beneath the live oak tree,
My wish to bottle it somehow.
Capture the moment of summer’s perfection, not a blemish to be seen.
A cloudless sky of blue above,
Like a step into a dream.
On a blanket beneath the leaves my mind free of any thoughts.
This is peace I desire most,
In a field of forget-me-nots.
Listening to songbirds sing and the bees gentle buzz,
Transport me to the past,
A moment of first true love.
I remember the way their lips taste, and the crinkle of smile lines,
Laugh that trapped my wild heart,
A memory lost to time.
The sun dips low on the horizon, an opulent display.
I could wish for nothing more than this,
A perfect summer day.
