Summer Solstice 2017

Dragon Fruit


SONG OF PERPETUAL SUMMER


Trade Winds set tempo, 
coffee on lanai greets day; 
sort the shades of blue.

Temperature rise 
harmonizing scent patterns 
with waves and sea birds.

Bending, stitching words 
throughout the soft melody; 
tapestry of palms.

Our dreams and memories 
string sensuous lei each day; 
generations link.

Chance encounters, whims
provide counterpoint, accent;
surprise of ginger.

An inclination 
towards hammock resolution;
afternoon answers.

Sunset promises, 
celebrate by letting go;
reward of night sky.
