There are those days that
sunlight reflects all your emotions
the sky is as blue as the water at the shore of Bora Bora
the bottled smell of roses and deep musk leave behind a trail in the air
hands on your shoulders linger around a little bit longer
smiles send little jolts of energy through your body and mind
high stemmed glasses are filled up with stars
you do not need many words to say what you wish to say
fashionable heels on your pedicured feet and precious cufflinks pricked into white shirts lighten up your mood
something old, new, borrowed and blue collide
white doves fly over and evoke only silence, the silence you long for
the word ‘yes’ brings back fond memories and creates new shiny ones
bitter and sweet flavors leave behind intense sensations
white table linnen and starched napkins add some more style
black ink on white paper creates a bond beyond words
hair pins and nail polish are added to the fashionable cocktail
striking a pose in the evening sun makes you jump for joy
a kiss leaves behind a tingling imprint on your heart
tears are for once the most intense and unconditional reflection of your fondest memories
butterflies inside and outside fly by
the cheers of children and giggling of babies add an extra dimension
a ring stands for never-ending when it comes down to love, faith and hope
a walk on cobbled stones leads to more joyful moments
candles in church and on tables in the moonlight flicker to remind you of the preciousness of life
lipstick and eyeliner that are considered waterproof don’t live up to their expectations
friends and family are joined together in order to create new and everlasting memories
looking over your shoulders you do once more to reconfirm the present and jump into the deep
the waning crescent and bright stars on your way home announce the next chapter you are longing for…longing for what you have chosen for to have, to hold and to embrace.
Summer days as such describe exactly what you wish to hold on to…no matter what.
Congrats to my little sis, her husband C and their 'jillybean' J.
PS: That the Red Devils came in third in Russia that day only intensified all of the above. Memorable & joyful days they do exist…we just need to be reminded of those once in a while. I did pick a very cheesy song to go along with this one. But in way this is to express how happy I am for my sister who is in many ways my opposite. Twilight was that evening unforgettable beautiful as well...
