High spirits

 Let the summer spirits

soar high

gliding, flying, reaching

for the stars

Rise up and surrender

to the full glow

to the fast flow

Receive and digest

the energy and the intensity

of it all

only to then fall

down, back to the earth

slow and steady

getting ready

Breathe, breathe through it

feet in the grass, hand in the soil

heart throb, soul boil

Risen with the heat of July

time is passing by

soon, very soon

shall be able to find peace, rest

making space, to rest

soon in my new nest

one more breath

one more

and one more

...

Tapestry

 Now, soon, we shall be

near, very near, my dear

The moon guides us

to the shores, the sand, the rocks

glistening in July's sun rays.

The seagulls come to let us know;

now, soon, we shall be

moving to the sea, you'll see.

The last threads shall be woven,

carefully chosen, love, unbroken,

our tapestry of many colours,

sea breeze, flowers

awaiting, 

the long painful hours

then, unweighting.

Moments away, the time is here,

Just a few more breaths:

Out, in, out, release
