Stay Summer...

Stay, summer.... don't go away....

stay......
in the shadows of my eye lids...

Warm and lucid...

as I lay.....

stay....
Like fire on the tips of my fingers....

the touch lingers...
just as fresh as yesterday....

stay..... in the melodies of the rustling leaves....
stay....while the wind deceives...

stay...summer...don't betray....
Fickle like the rains in May...

not long before the clouds will call...
not long before the sky will fall...

Not long before your soul will sway.....
And whisper....”you have gone astray.....”

Not long before your song will fade....
And rain, disgruntled, will invade...

Your lonely heart will bleed then dry...
And mind will have no alibi...

Summer....

See the end of all this gloom....
Let the purple iris bloom....

Like in the pathway from Monet...

Stay....
