Summer
By akell PLATINUM
Asheville, North Carolina

Crisp summer in the air. Worry free, not a care. Your eyes encompass my heart As my hand swims through your hair.

There can be no society without poetry, but society can never be realized as poetry, it is never poetic. Sometimes the two terms seek to break apart. They cannot.<br /> -Octavio Paz

Favorite Quote:
&quot;Now, no matter what the mullah teaches, there is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife&#039;s right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone&#039;s right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness... There is no act more wretched than stealing&quot; Baba to Amir, The Kite Runner

&quot;Yes: I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.&quot;<br /> &mdash; Oscar Wilde (The Critic as Artist)
