TO THE DANCE

Summer took us by surprise.

The sun came out and blued the skies

and all the earth turned green.

 

Women blossomed, bright flowers

as the days grew into their hours.

Nature turned to the dance.

 

The beer foamed, tasting colder

as children played, ever bolder,

glad, for school was over.

 

And all around me, i felt

the Winter's melancholy melt.

And love was in the air.
