Summer's Day
The boy, dark haired and amber eyed
The girl, a pale ghost by his side
Lie together in the long grass
Watching the summer sun pass
Overhead
They see only the sky
So clean, blue and cloudless
The warm air touches them
With its softest breath
Lost in love, he reaches for her
Feels her touch as she leans over
Her black hair falls against his face
Their bodies share this sacred place
In silence
Sensing each other's needs
As sunlight burns their skin
Serenaded from above
By love songs the birds sing
