Summer Nights

As a request, I was asked to write this for a friend- who loves summer nights, much like I do... Enjoy

Sun dips,

Color drips,

Painting the sky red
Day fades

with starry braids

forming overhead
A summer night

the moon takes flight

with elegance and grace
stars dance

to a sweet romance

and vanish without a trace
soft air,

without a care,

perfection in simplest form
sweet sounds to hear,

nothing to fear,

cuddled safe and warm
alas this night will fade away,

dark will turn back to day

and life will carry on
so don't forget that summer night

and how the moon shines so bright

and welcome in the dawn
