Summer's Wind

Lost in the mist of loving you 

Lost in the kiss of holding you... 

The warmth of the sun through summer's wind 

the sound of your voice like a violin... 

The howl of a wolf entertains as dreams 

become a canopy of secret pleasures... 

Playful moments lie in meadows sweet 

your eyes and mine in a peaceful sleep... 

Flowers sway to lilting laughter and 

happy ever after...

Your poem contains so many sensory delights that define summer for me, starting with the ever-present wind (being near the coast). I love the way you pick words with similar sounds like (mist . . . kiss) and (sweet . . . sleep). I love the way you include something for all the senses. Loving, playing, sleeping, and laughing . . . your poem is filled with the sensations of summer love (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

dear Margie... my muse must be an angel.... I woke in the middle of the night and thought of these lines.
You could have given me a candle from heaven, as I had lost my inspiration... so I really appreciate your review. You are so generous. fondly, Pat

Really happy to hear this & I hope your angel muse visits on other hot August nights to come! *smile*

Another lovely write, Pat.....

Infused with gentle near rhymes and lovely imagery of the season, your words here invoke a sense of peace and longing for the lazy, simple days of Summer. And the Summer Wind? A joy to behold when it picks up in the evenings and cools the last remnants of the sweltering sun. My favourite part of summer.

Wonderful in its simplicity and wording, this one. Nicely written.

This is so beautifully written, with such softness and happiness playing with the words. To find that comfort of sound in that voice is truly a wonderful place to be, with the happy ever after forever playing out new, yet comforting scenes.

[Kelly Scheppers]

You truly engage the wonder and beauty of love, Pat. I've always been mesmerized by words like "lilting", for they're rarely heard of in day to day conversation. Such a lovely ethereal feel to this, like so many that you pen. Especially loved your ending of "happy ever after".

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Kelly... most love affairs start with a lilting melody of a smile that could be a promise of romance. Thanks for being a part of the dance. truly, Pat
