1. Warm Sunshine

    We linger awhile upon the grass Where chequered shadows of clouds doth pass, Shrouding the sun and its warming rays reach Before passing on to let the summer heat preach. How quiet it is, this peaceful scene, As though all were lost and no longer seen. Washed away with the last heavy rain So that you and I are all that remain. A sight more beautiful could not be seen Surrounded by flowers in rich pastures green, And fruit-baring boughs that hang heavy and deep, Rich with ripe harvest now ready to reap. The clouds bloom amber in the soft-dying day And a playful breeze dances amid the rolling reeds sway. It is the perfume of summer on warm days like these That could calm any soul to a soft peaceful ease. All except I who wish to fall into bliss: The mellow fruitfulness of your soft swollen kiss. My thoughts cannot hide, thus were to be caught, A mind laid bare without innocent thought. She who hath only an ember of fire Whose heat slowly spreads to ignite a desire, To kiss tenderly your lips of rich mellow wine As we drink our fill of the warm sunshine.
