I need write this Poem

Summer in umbra;
slight, tanned memory against
gold highlighted hair.

Rose wine, heavy in rooted vine,
a concentrate,
shrunk to expansion in tension.

I want to make our hearts race:
a herd of horses' hoof beats.
It will be easy --
they will run on the tune of Sarah,
as mine does now.

Oh! I love this song!
Its prolonged rush.
I think it is the strong lead of theme;
the weave of sultry voice,
emotional passion
and also a sensual maturity.

The entrance sentences,
stunning in climb of ladders,
up, down ...
and up again.

Oh! Such a sway of way ...

I need write this poem
before winter wipes memories
in  its steady steep step-up of freeze.

    in its steady steep step up of freeze i loved your ending on this..................winter its wonder its beauty only when untouched by human dirty hands......pollution.....turning that white snow,,,,,into dirt.........

    I love evergreens when they wear their coats of the purest and whitest of

    that white stuff..........and each and every snowflakes that sparkles like the most

    preciouse of jewles........a diamond........but a diamond,,.....has to be polished

    cleaned up by human hands........sometimes this is called blood money..............

    but a snow flake that is perfect and unique each one is different, for I have spent

    almost half a life time looking at them.....and they bedazzle me all the time, if

    there is such a word,,,,,,,,,i really dont know..........but in praise of Winter

    and its splendour..................and I thank the huge evergreens that wear their coats of snow...and that makes me feel warm.........................

    Lovely imagery in this! I like the way it jumps around to different things--from describing the season, to love, to a song, a poem, and to the next season. Something about your descriptions reminds me of the book "Blackberry Wine" by Joanne Harris. Excellent work
