SUMMER

Auburn mountains, leafless flora, gray

Sky, deserted arena, magical shows no

More, life follows the path of summer!

In this equatorial night you are near me

Is not it a beautiful acquirement? Broken

Breathe gets new meaning whenever -

Touching to your mouth, the longer dense

Gloom, itself bloom, as your leaning face

Touches to sweating chest, skinny clouds

Flies in the midnight sky, to get a few

Dewdrops, mass vapors of ocean go to

Up and up to extinguish the thirst of blues!

In the city end, sea winds tries to break

The privacy rules, moves like a nomad

Searches night halt, passes nearby semi dry

Garden, brings few sweet aroma, knocks

The windowpanes for sharing some

Fragranced dream, you removes slowly

My embraced arm, unfolds windowpanes,

Bedroom feels the freshness, dreams close

The eyelash, I do not know, it stayed for –

Some moment, or became the third eye!

In the empire of sleep, sensation has no

Control, a wilderness submerges the persona!

We wandered through the rainforest

Entire night we were detached from the

Summer valley, short-term inhabited near

Dream river, dwelling beautiful flourish

Homes, loved to each other, germinated

Harmonious creepers with rare beauty,

Left the place before the day break as

As strange faces laughing on our exposure!
