Shall I compare thee, to a sunburnt skin?
Summer nights, summer days, summer winds.
Frolic through Sunkist ray beams
of orange, amber sunset ends?
Conscious streams, of thought and mind,
compare little to rushing, water-kind.
Splash to Tahoe or Venice Beach,
walk briskly but determined on sands of time.
Grasp at sticks of memories on mountain peaks,
to live out ones Wonder, Cheshire dream!
Nest momentarily on embers of Solstice Summers,
to Discover fireflies of fortune and Midnight beauty.
What brings happiness to you and me?
Living each summer day and night like it is your Final Destiny!

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
