Summer creeped into our lives, slowly at first, driven by time
Buds became flowers and shoots became leaves
The final blossom fell from the trees
The sun beamed suspended in the sky until late
It toasted my eager bare skin to create a summer glow
The grass grew longer ready for a mow
But what was the true taste?
That true taste of summer ?
Well that is an easy one for me
The blushed ripe skin
The dripping juice
The velvet drip of white
The taste is the perfect summer team
A bursting bowl of peaches and cream

The peaches so fine
Picked them this morning
With something in mind
Washed them and cut them
by Ted Onulak
On a golden bed of sponge cake
You wordlessly recline
Sweet dreams, like drops of nectar
Glow gently in your mind
A satin-
