Ode To The Summer Wind (In Hours Before I Sleep) Poem by Kristoffer Randolf Ramos

Gentle sleep, this shiver, a sweet embrace.
Sweet as nectar on budding rose of May.
From a window, a wind as sweet invisibly traced
Though the night is a long road we find
Memory surging, but this night is blind.

Oh Summer Wind! at night you taught us love.
Who must be taught as though you thought us not.
And love unknown proposed as love forgot.
Teach not to doubt, if doubting is all we sense.
Doubt not a love, a love known intense.

Oh Summer Wind, remember us, our recollection
Dig deep into consciousness your known affection
If by remembering, it is ourselves that we remember
This cold wind brings shiver! Oh Summer Wind made me love life still
We break in the past, lying, and mesmerizing in thrill

Oh Summer Wind! , whose soul had kept unseen
Who bowed down not neither to King nor Queen
The trees who held their head up high
Have kissed, and danced with the wind passing by

Oh Summer Wind! , thou art canst make me weep!
Mine is a rhyme, make not a promise to keep!
In hours before I sleep!
I felt your love so deep!
In hours before I sleep!
