The Summer Night

This summer night
Melts on my mind like no other.
Slipping smoothly into
The pockets of my memory.
And I'll wait till alls asleep,
So the trees have already
Swayed into their slumber.
Even the fireflies are tired of
Their own charades.
And so the night awaits.
A haze of a candle,
A tap on my window,
A surge of excitement.
"I'll meet you in the field" I whisper.
Nice and slow we go,
Careful not to wake a soul.
Not even the wind.
As I follow your flickering light,
Licking at the darkness,
The tall grass mother's our figures
As the moon kisses your eyes,
Just enough to
Make them sparkle.
Out in the open yet so secluded,
Our hearts race from this
Mischievous excursion.
My hand weaves through the grass
In search of yours.
Grasping your warmth,
We connect.
Instantly the earth halted its turn
And shot a dozen
Shooting stars.
Silently.
The warm breeze caresses our lips just
Before they touch.
Then the moon brightens as if
It was saving all its light
Just for this one occasion.
The world vanished,
And even the crickets have called it quits.
Somehow they knew,
That this summer night,
Just this night….
Was meant for me and you.
