------------------------------------------------
Sun streaming in my window
looking out over green
grass, shady tree
roses by the mailbox
Little girls giggle in the street
cheerful breezes rustle
playful leaves
birds chirp, cicadas sing
Lounging reading in my pjs
ice cream, smoothies, s'mores
by the campfire
cool waves of relaxation
Music filling parks with joy
red-orange-purple sunsets
twilight, sparking stars
learning, spinning school thoughts
Goodbye summer.

P.S. I know this is a day early but I won't be able to blog tomorrow!
You've caught summer in your poem! Isn't it funny how some things beg to be written as a poem. This was one of them.
ReplyDeleteAh-h, summer! I love that 'cool waves of relaxation'. Lovely reminiscing, but the best part to me is that you woke up and wrote it. You must have sub-consciously already been saying goodbye. Happy start of school!
ReplyDelete"Cool waves of relaxation" describes summer to a "T." Yes, summer is leaving us, and I enjoyed your sights and sounds of the season.
ReplyDeleteYou've described my summer, down to the smoothies. It's kind of sad that the rest of the year doesn't have those 'cool waves of relaxation.' Maybe we need to start infusing the year with such things. Loved your poem.
