Summers Day challenge

If it wasn't for you what would i do

Summer day,

alleviating pain-

Nor Poe or Emily Dickinson thwart my future during summer rain, and a book

taking aim,

Even the great Khalil Gibran lit candle to flame,

As the hour of separation came-

Romeo and Juliet in the air-

See people anchored by sea on the islands of Captain Cook-

A midsummer night's dream sonnet in hand gave it a look...

Napa- in valley where no comparison stands, an alley man in San Fran, scammed; paraded away..

So the hot springs of my soul did I dive in today.

Dive into my knees as I pray...

Cleansing myself of how I hurt you with the wind through my sail,

You prevail.

You are what I live for in new bloom,

Let a loom pass way through as parody-

Vitamin D on our skin as you share with me-

Looped in the fare of the sea-

For you my paradigm, fairer than me-

All the time; you are the calm in the center of my reckless mind.

In winter's depth you pull me in with summer's breath-

A refreshment of inventment-

Illuminating and edifying-

Inventive-

gentrifying; collect light waves for production;

A Shakespearean now comparable to Edison as a light burst and function-

Above our mind blown- investments, speech is free in conjunction-

Like fireflies our thoughts disperse into the night...

Summer night.
