Oh summer sunset sun
you light the sky on fire,
The red the orange like a flame
you awaken our desire,
The dusk it settles in
as you go down low,
The logs and pine cones in the fire pit
help create the ambience the glow,
The chatter and the laughter
the meal has been consumed,
Music playing in the background
and drinking is resumed,
Around the pool a man chases a woman
before throwing her in,
Laughing some of us strip to our underwear
others dive for a swim,
The more sane of us sit around the fire pit
we laugh and talk and smile,
A cute guy picks up his old guitar
and hums softly for awhile,
Enraptured we all sit quietly some drink some smoke relax
he’s been strumming in his own world and looks up with a start,
All these eyes intently watching
captured every mind and every heart,
He starts again plays a melody
that tugs at every soul,
We all listen as he plays so passionately
all of us connected all of us whole,
The sun it leaves the sky
the candles we do light,
The cute guy old guitar his heartfelt songs
to carry us further in to this night….

My pleasure my dear. I do enjoy your work and while I probably don’t comment or ‘like’ as I should, I wanted to tell you that you are enjoyed.
Thank you that really means a lot to me.
Hugs and smiles to you.x.

Never doubt that you touch more than you know.
Your so sweet! 🙂
An extra hug for you.x.
It must be a summer thing where guitars are dusted off restrung and plucked anew
Maybe…. Do you play? 🙂
I always think there is something very special when you get to watch someone in their own thoughts playing, oblivious to the world around them….
Happy hugs your way.x. 🙂
I’ve just picked it up after 5 years, I remember nothing 🙂
Sit back, relax, ignore everyone else…. It will come back….
And….
Big question….
Are you in the US or UK?
You’ve been quite inspired since your return 🙂 Good to see.
Always good to read your comments 🙂
Hope you are great and glad you like my words.
Hugs your way.x.
