She says I want to sit
Outside on the
Longest day of the year
Please join me
So I do
We listen to the
Cicadas singing and
Watch the fireflies
Blinking out their
Messages to each other
Arcturus becomes the
First star I see tonight
And point it out to
My love
She chats about childhood
Memories of summertime
As the cicadas draw a
Close to their chorus
And the fireflies slowly
Disappear into the darkness
And we revel in the simple
Joys of our moments together
On this longest day
