windswept smiles

long, top down drives
even shirtless tans
sweet strawberry kisses and
glorious watermelon stains

laughter lifting through the trees
glimpses of sun blest promises
sugar coated whispers
catching in the breeze

fruit bowls, waterholes
and refreshing icy poles
interlacing fingers share
starry nights and lazy days

This piece is OK but seems to lack a person or body, the words you write are fine just let us know who you are writing to,
Bet she is worth every word,
"interlacing fingers share"
"Our interlacing fingers shared
Dreams of being alive"
Sort of thing ??
Take care Yours, Ian..

I have considered that on the outset,
sadly for you, I specifically decided to
go ahead and leave persons and bodies,
allusive or pronouned, as it was meant
as a sweeping thought of a summer day
not anchored to anything or anyone specific.

I will, however post up one, more orthodox
with more tangible emotional placeholders
to allow for a ready comparison & choice.

Thanks most kindly ☺

and the untamed...
the unchained...
I was captivated
strawberry fragrance from
a young girl
woman..chantrause?
expensive..nor thick or winsome
There are some flavors
that arouse an interest but not
feed the appetite

like coffee...dark roast please.
something..to delve ..
said that once and they thought
I was a lunatic...
which I am..

I dont want the full story sometimes
You can write..
oft its a hard thing to do..

This one is a very great poem
for summer!

Thank You!

Much appreciated☺ you've allowed the words and your life view to create a journey that is your own. And I'm very grateful that you've so generously shared that experience with me. I don't feel like my reentry into the neopoet world is such a waste.
