Hey June

********************************************

May has faded away
and June has slipped in
looking not for a lover
but a here today,
gone tomorrow, friend.

Someone to laugh with
until our sides ache.
A kindred spirit
who does not judge
but accepts me as I am.

Someone to cry with
until the tears run their course.
An explorer,
who looks beyond the surface,
and sees the beauty within.

If I unintentionally weave memories
that intoxicate you more then one month.
So that a day, week, or even a year hence,
you still yearn for me.
You will always have our intimate secrets
lingering in the whispering wind,
my beloved June friend.

then = than (as pointed out already)

Liked the flow until the last stanza. Not sure if it's too long and not sure if the words might be refined. Such a change in direction from some of your early stuff and a pleasure to read.

Very nice. Only thing I noticed is a typo: "that intoxicate you more then (than) one month." Thanks for the read. Janet

Wow, I uploaded this while heavily medicated for my Fibromyalgia.
It is a blur to me.

This piece makes more sense if you read, “|My May” first. It is a short read.

The idea is just a generic excuse to write something to go along with the months.


Thanks for the comments everyone.

I did consider “than” rather then..”then” but was not sure.
I hoped someone would catch it so thankyousoverymuch. :-]

i like the unerlining emotion to the piece. the theme is very interesting. it has real human emotion and it says it in very common emotional language.

Excellent job, Sheri!! "Whispering Wind" has been used of course but still love the image it conjures, and reckon it was used long before Stairway.
