Summer’s Bedtime
Good night Summer
We kiss your
forehead mountain top here
calling in the higher light
That raised our devotion to praise
Good night Summer
We squeeze your
tender flesh of earth here
grounding our presence to abundance
That lingered us in warmth of days
Good night Summer
We breath your
Pheromones of humidity here
Seducing our intimacy with nature
That entered our dreaming ways
Good night summer
We stroke your
Cheeks of clouds here
Casting hopes within the impermanence
That blessed the backs of
our harvest hands’ prays
Good night Summer
We love you
May we carry your gifts under our skin
May you muse us in the Winter wind
Always here with love—
As the FIRE within
**although the northern hemisphere fall equinox is a few weeks away, every September when my kids go back to school feels like the end of summer, may it feel like goodnight, not goodbye
