Summer Nights

One Summer night when the heat had cooled

walking in the woods with you

Feeling the energy from the woods using

 you to come right thru.

Looking up to the Stars as they are

dancing for us this night.

From within this clearing the Stars dancing

makes the Moon shine bright.

Hearing the breeze rustle thru the treetops

with the Owls still talking,

What a beautiful night to be out in the

woods star gazing and walking.               

Stopping to listen to the sound of running

water below a small ridge,

Watching the water of the creek quickly

flowing below the wooden bridge,

Travel down the path together seeing all

of the streaming moonlit field,

Not being able to see the far side again

so not knowing where to yield.

Heading back to the road so we are able

to head home to end our stroll,

Getting there together talking about how

we had come and at what toll.

We had come together thanks to a

special and caring friend,

From the first meeting we knew our search

had come to an abrupt end.

We go inside to get some Cocoa then go

back outside to sit by the fire,

Sitting there talking and drinking our Cocoa

with the one we mostly admire.
