Summer's Slumber - Kisses For The Moon

 

Balmy summer breezes

Gently caress the saffron harvest moon
Dreaming their memories of autumn’s golden red kiss
Trees are shedding their emerald green summer tresses
Kindly kissing the Earth as their garments fall gently below
And flowers have shed their vivid colorful dresses
As crimson amber leaves gently anoint the ground for show

While summer sheds her beautiful clothes -
Mother Nature lovingly seduces her to dream

She's kissed the shore with her elegant colorful attire

She paraded us with her regal painted scenes...
Painted the world with her exquisite apparel 

It's time for her yearly seasonal retire
She's blessed the birds in their angelic symphony of songs

  So now -she'll drink the dreams of slumber

Taking the cup of restful sleep - is now where she belongs

She asks the moon to wait patiently...
For her splendid colorful return
When she'll paint the world with her hair of radiant, plaited locks
Where once more her majestic colors will burn
She'll brush the Earth in splendid regal colors
Clothing herself in her brilliant, colorful picturesque frocks

As the ruby red blaze of autumn begins to kiss the Earth

With her dazzling hues of gold and coral valor

 

 

 

But before she goes...
She gently reaches out with her one last caress...
She softly whispers as she sweetly kisses the moon
”It’s time now for fall - it’s time for me to undress”
She softly breathes her dulcet ending tune...
"Goodnight", she gently whispers,

"I’ll see you soon Mr. Moon...

Will you please wait for my return?"

 

 

Quietly - she drifts into her splendid, peaceful dreams

Slumbering peacefully...

Safely harbored in Mother Nature’s loving arms

As mellow zephyrs gently caress autumn's waiting whispers
While the moon drizzles its shimmering dusty charms
Serenading nature with his soft silvery tune
As this luminous gleaming Luna Mister-

Cordially opens his welcoming arms

To September's colors of orange and golden browns

Awaiting the arrival of dancing petals

As he gently embraces autumn's leaf draped charms

Next he’ll greet the season’s sister

From the pristine silverblue Northern Isles...

Awaiting dancing ivory snowflakes

As he cheerfully greets winter

With his warm welcoming golden smile
