Nana's Song
Summertime makes me think of you.
It brings on a small twinge of pain at your absence,
But I smile nonetheless.
No tears accompany that ache
When you enter my mind.
That flowing river,
That was once my grief
Has at last dried out.
I sing for you, Nana,
Of youthful Summer wishes.
Twirling in dizzying circles
Underneath the trees.
Maples show
The majestic Evergreen
What its like to have grace.
And the Evergreen in turn,
Demonstrates the power
Of presence.
Robins twitter
A lilting tune to the sky
While tiny hummingbirds dash about
To drink up sweet nectar.
Cotton candy clouds
Continue to float in the breeze
And the sailboats
Are still riding the waves.
Its absolutely breathtaking.
So I sing a song
In your memory,
While walking in the glow
Of the Summer sun.
Your favorite season, Nana,
Will forever make me
Think of you
And smile.
