Summer Love


Summer Evening, Edward Hopper, 1947


Moth wings caress the light,
blinded by a bright desire.
He still sets her heart on fire,
but it's too hot tonight.

  1. I really like this short take on the prompt. The image of the moth circling around the light mirrors the scene played out below well!

  2. Superb work, taut, with a lot between the lines.

  3. When I was a teenager, it couldn't be too warm .. now, it's a different story.
