Children of Summer

About this poem

Children of Summer is a lyrical meditation on astrological identity, elemental balance, and sacred connection. It speaks in the voice of a daughter of early June—the second decan of Gemini—who carries a feminine, youthful fire beneath a blue-white sky.

Across the poem, she finds her counterpart in a son of early August—the second decan of Leo—who burns with a masculine, regal flame as the King of Swords. Together, their separate signs and seasons converge into a shared cosmic geometry: the Decagram and the Decagon, anchored in the power of ten. Rooted in zodiacal imagery and the language of sacred geometry, the piece explores how two distinct summer-born souls form one blueprint, one shape, one universe-written bond.

Two figures, gemini woman and leo man with decagan in the middl.

I am a daughter of early summer,
breathing my first into the world
on the tenth day of June.

I hold a feminine fire,
drawing others with my youthful energy.
I bring sunshine beneath a blue-white sky,
for I am the second decan of Gemini.

He is a son of late summer,
sparking his light
on the tenth day of August.

He holds a strong masculine flame,
the King of Swords, driven by intellect.
He draws others in with his majestic presence,
carrying a royal yet fiery energy,
for he is the second decan of Leo.

He is the brightest star
in his constellation,
his very name a gift from God,
a celestial flame
shining with a light all his own.

I am a Heavenly Queen,
an Empress beneath the summer sky,
crowned in starlight,
carrying within me
the quiet radiance bestowed by the Divine.

I reach toward his wild fire,
longing to caress his blaze.
In the realm of dreams,
he cools beneath my breath
and blows me a kiss.

We are the children of summer,
linked by the power of ten.

We are the Decagram,
we are the Decagon,
anchored in sacred geometry,
a shared cosmic blueprint,
rooted deep within the universe.
