This cool night
Is not to be missed

Even the fireflies
Normally prowling the air
This time of year for love
Are still

With pleasure
I feel the chill
On bare legs and arms
Mute in peace
Under summer stars

The sound of cars
On the road below

There’s nothing
I want

How seminally provocative this gem is. Read, see, and feel. As it should be.

You write mood poetry, and set the scene so well.

Love the sound of this~
