Just Past Summer
Just Past Summer
It was a time you let go
And caught the wind
Absent a rudder to slice your way through
Just Past Summer,
You let go of wondering how to Love,
You did.
Colors
Blended into one voice
Truth
Beating swiftly
Like cream does to butter.
Just Past Summer,
A fire as big as a sunset
Was started,
Using all the dried up dreams
And the gutter remains.
Rich you said,
Smell the smoke,
Sacred release.
The ashes you spread out like a table
Serving doubt and loneliness
Featuring a cold vichyssoise that had
A hint of Hope.
This hint you said,
Will complement the rest,
Fear not.
Dessert was three layers of
Rich longing,
Covered with a double dark
Butter cream of Love.
Always Love
You said…
Then off you went,
To catch the boat with no rudder,
On a warm Chinook breeze
That took you to
Just Past Summer.

Lina this is so beautiful. The colour and movement give me such a feeling of being set free even before I read your writing and then I read what you have written, with everything going on in my mind at the moment it really calmed me and I drifted when I read this… so I read it again. Just perfect :)
