Love Seasons Of Two

Garth Rakumakoe

He’d been filled with a deep longing,

having last seen her

a week, that felt like months ago

 

Winter turned seventy, there and then

when his heart beamed

the birth of spring

at the sight of her

 

He planted a kiss

on her forehead

and from her smile

down to her painted toenails,

pointedly standing,

to embrace his tall frame

she took his breath away

as her lips met his

and blushed Autumn sixteen

 

They spent the day together,

clasped, inter-etched,

kissed,

and fanned the flames,

the flames of love…

 

She loved cooking for him

as he toplessly did the dishes

Tending the meal

she turned

their gazes locked

and declared their promises

 

The air was flammable

The fire was in their eyes

and summer was twenty-one!
