"Verdant"
The color of arms that parted for us
as you chased me through the greenery.
The color of grass beneath our feet
that left no trail for others to follow.
The color of ivy hiding the door
to our secret world no one else knew.
The color of water lilies and the pond
where you and I once bathed together.
The color of your eyes as you spun me around,
not wasting a precious second.
The color of her face if she saw
where our lips and fingers met.
The color of the sky and the world around us
as you found your peace inside me.
Our love was verdant.

"Endless"
The warmth of summer makes fools of us all.
We think its golden rays, twinkling at us through branches, will continue.
We think its heated kiss will linger on our skin, indefinite.
We think late evenings filled with fireflies and the clinking of glasses will keep us young eternally.
But it’s not until the first breath of a cool morning,
the first drop of a withered leaf,
the first dawn that is slower to appear,
that we realize summer is not endless.
Just like a lover’s embrace,
it ends.
But it leaves us with a memory to cherish forever.
