Presence of Summer

Summer days winding down

I’m hearing the last of the bird’s summer songs

Autumn’s rains will come

And the birds will sleep in, leaving only silent mornings

I will lay in bed a while and remember

A perfect summer day, you sitting on that park bench

Your smile, bringing the surroundings to life

Deepening the colors of every living things

My eyes comprehending and vividly living through your eyes

I will lay in bed a little while longer and remember

You all dressed in white

A composition of living light

A beautiful dream in my reality

The camera lens captured you wonderfully that day

And as I lay in bed, remembering that day

Your presence reminds me that summer is never that far away
