Summer Breeze Melodies

 With Poetic Bloomings Summer Breeze prompt 

 and Victoria playing As Time Goes By on the piano 

 and a sort of rain-ish, cool-ish Canada Day Holiday, today lends itself to poetry:)

Summer breeze teases the tree-tops with sighs

It has forgotten yesterday’s good-byes

Here is a new day unraveling bliss

Life is too short to miss moments like this

Summer breeze eases high-noon from the clock

Soon dusk-blue shadows will darken the walk

Time is a whisper yet weighs us with need

Fear is like poison; let faith intercede

Summer breeze murmurs in jasmine and rose

Shimmers in curtains where pale moonlight glows

Humble, the poet, that reaches to snare

Pictures of moments fading to thin air

Summer breeze teases the tree-tops with sighs

Life is a circle of hellos-goodbyes

Moment to moment to memory, oh

Love makes the holding worth the letting go
