Summer is the stuff of dreams
...
...
butterflies and hummingbirds
and
days that stretch the imagination
and
days that stretch the imagination
from sunny mornings
that slip into hot afternoons
to stormy evenings
and cool nights
it is the time of the year we daydream about
during class,
between phone calls,
stacks of paper work,
stacks of paper work,
and hours sitting in traffic;
it is a destination we allow ourselves to selfishly indulge
as we slowly escape the reality of all other seasons.

ReplyDeletethanks for your lovely comment! We have not been experiencing hot, lovely summer days here in Chicago. So much rain! All the flowers and trees are still in full bloom and lush and green - that is unheard of in Aug!
