Poem in Response

Having read “Summer Winds“, penned by a talented poetess and dear friend, Cindy Georgakas – wherein she conveys joys of summer love, while in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico – I was inspired to write this poem in response…

On a warm, poetic breeze
Writing songs within the sand
– soulful summer sensations
Shared on the beach, hand in hand
