Summer love

Original Submission by Percy Brahma

In May summer

Like dream you came

I still recall it

Like chocolate ice cream

We share by the store

That was perched on a

Ancient rock

From Atop it we could see

The army camp

From where you came

I still remember you

Your face is vague in my memory

Like translucent glass

Ill is my fate

But your voice is clear

Like limpid glass

Bellow and romping

We spend the summer

Like magic you came

A fresh air

Puff! The balloon is gone

And you were too

When the rice field turns gold

You went away

Never to return

I ran behind your car

Until I could not

Still I try to recall

Ill fate of mine

Did you glance at me?

While I was chasing

You?
