Folly Beach

Summer of Love

Such lust upon my soul I’ve never felt

As when I saw June rise up from the sand

The grains slid down the silk of her sweet svelte

Like stones of price they glittered on her tan

💕

Such love upon my heart you rendered true

With waves of blue that grazed into my core

A lamb in trust my mind you took and slew

My summer love of nineteen eighty-four

💕

In loss and pain I search on every dune

The wind blows hard till sand it stings my eyes

With broken heart and mind I’ve lost my June

The clock has struck, the sands are now July’s

💕

With laden heart I know I must survive

Til June’s return in nineteen eighty-five.

Authors note- Folly Beach, Charleston, SC is real. For a classic beach experience of the surf, sands, pavilions, and new friends, you can’t beat it. Thanks for dredging up the memories Vocal. I’m packing my bag now. June is right around the corner. 💕
