Summer Skies
Summer Skies
(dedicated to the memory of Kathleen Feliciano....1941-1971)
____________________
I look across the harbor
at the boats out on the bay,
thinking I'll come down awhile
just to slip away.
I don't know who I'm fooling,
she's waiting everywhere,
and every place I find myself,
I find she's always there.
Her smile is in the sunshine,
her spirit in the breeze,
gentle laughter echoes
as it rustles through the trees,
reflections on the waters
like the prisms of her eyes,
reminding me of used-to-bes
beneath the summer skies.
