Summer Love

Kevin Michael Bloor

One summer, I was loved with fire so fierce

By girl, whose smile, like Cupid’s barb did pierce

The endless aching of my broken heart

With sunlight she filled up each pining part!

 

She calmed the restless raging of my mind

And kissed with quiet breathing that did bind

The wounds within, where witch with wingless feet

Had savaged me and sifted me like wheat

 

This girl, with tresses blonde and eyes of fire

I’d longed for all my life with deep desire

She’d haunted me in sleepy, twilight dreams

Surrounded me with moon-lit golden gleams

 

She wooed me now with wide-eyed wonder wings

Soothed sorrowed soul, so somehow now it sings!

She held me in the hollow of her hand

She slept with me on snow-white silver sand

 

Yes, I was loved, and it was not a dream

It was a goddess by that sun-lit stream!

Who breathed me back to life from dusty death

By beauty that she breathed with ev’ry breath
