a summer never to forget
the night you were delivered to the world
dark child of the universe amongst the blood of fertility
into this world that sleeps and slept that night
you awoke something in your mother, father
lightning returning for a second time
a sister for a brother
an earth for his heavenly aspirations
somewhere, someone who in the future he could fall to
to fall and rise again together...

you are the mystery of four
a miraculous curve in the forming of the circle of life
the star that shines in your father's eyes
a reminder to your mother that when they are gone
they will not be left behind
that you and you brother will continue their journey
and upon their life's completion
they will look back with love and affection
to a summer never to forget
