Drunk with summer
Eyes hooked on passion vines
We wrestled
In a pasture of clover and yarrow
’Twas blackberry time
Lips stained
Eyes blind
When you broke our perfect home
Every day, every night,
I think of you
And the downtown life
You preferred to me
No surprise
Yet I wept in house
Finding a sock you dropped
Too late to run after you
Gooseberries beckon now
Goldfinches dart
Sunflowers spot the pasture
That was yours and mine
Redwing blackbirds whistle
Purple dragonflies circle
Our sky blue sky
Unaware you’ve gone
Tadpoles ripple the pond
Like sound waves
Fireflies try to light my way
So I keep on
When honeydews ripen
Grown-up tadpoles croak
I’ll be playing in the moonlight
Reaching for you in the dance
I'll stain your lips
With blackberry juice
And hold your warm hands
We’ll make love in the clover and yarrow
Truth can then be set free
I'll scream it aloud
Pride be damned
I love you forever in blackberry time
Eyes hooked on passion vines
We wrestled
In a pasture of clover and yarrow
’Twas blackberry time
Lips stained
Eyes blind
When you broke our perfect home
Every day, every night,
I think of you
And the downtown life
You preferred to me
No surprise
Yet I wept in house
Finding a sock you dropped
Too late to run after you
Gooseberries beckon now
Goldfinches dart
Sunflowers spot the pasture
That was yours and mine
Redwing blackbirds whistle
Purple dragonflies circle
Our sky blue sky
Unaware you’ve gone
Tadpoles ripple the pond
Like sound waves
Fireflies try to light my way
So I keep on
When honeydews ripen
Grown-up tadpoles croak
I’ll be playing in the moonlight
Reaching for you in the dance
I'll stain your lips
With blackberry juice
And hold your warm hands
We’ll make love in the clover and yarrow
Truth can then be set free
I'll scream it aloud
Pride be damned
I love you forever in blackberry time

Love is like a storm. It arrives with a fury and moves on with a whimper!
