Poem: The Age of Eternal Summer


in the days of the summer sun
we were young and strong
and wise in our own eyes
we cared for the moment
and lived for the present

everyday was a wonder
a new exploration
an opportunity to live
we laughed and sang
we danced and loved

under the blue sky
lying in the grass
letting the sun warm us
our hope lasting
only to the next day
every day like the one before

no concern for the future
no fear, no worries, no threats
never hungry or thirsty
taking everything for granted
thinking it would never end

time washed over us
passing unnoticed
months, weeks, years
we were young and free
in the age of eternal summer
