NaPoWriMo Poem 9
"The first warm day"
In the sudden heat
of summer
Monday is forgotten
We shimmy off responsibility
like burdensome winter coats
and kick our feet
into soft air
The breeze rushes
through our toes
like time
The sun sets
leaving us cool of her embrace
We settle near open windiws
blankets twisted on the floor
and bask in the afterglow
of the season's first kiss
Like giddy school kids
we disregard the assured heartbreak
how we'll soon romanticize the cold
but for now the grass is green here
and lighted of heavy garments
We feel bold
"The first warm day"

we disregard the assured heartbreak
how we'll soon romanticize the cold
but for now the grass is green here
and lighted of heavy garments
We feel bold
