After Thoughts
The Poetry of J. Hodges

Solstice

She is my sun.
She shines bright in my being.
She is the one upon which I revolve.
She is timeless and hot.

Without her, there is darkness.
With or without her,
I will always love her.

She passes
like a comet through my dreams
only to awaken without her.

Quietly, I wait…

She rises
burns bright and her light
covers me with awe.

-J
