Summer Nights

Summer Nights

A Poem by G. K. Bostic
"

Sonnet

"

The warmth of summer nights inside the mind

Lends soothing comfort, lifting humankind...

Replacing days of icy fingered hate

With gentle hands that rehabilitate.

No longer speaking words that so confined


That all who heard were left both deaf and blind

To any chance of learning or to find

Forgiveness for mistakes that isolate.

The warmth of summer nights inside the mind


Affords the opportunity to wind

The fragile strands of love that tightly bind

Our lonely souls together and create

A world in which our seasons celebrate.

Accepting without judging has defined

The warmth of summer nights inside the mind.
