Summerize for the summer size of the summer time in your life
Pack the boots and the gloves and the scarves knit with love
rediscover your skin
warm within
clothes are thin
for the win!
Put away the dark curtains and drape lacy pellucid flowing veils that allow for the breeze to flow through with ease
bringing odors that please
from the lilac and lavender trees
Put up the hammock
notorious for nap attacks
under skies peppered with fluffy clouds to give you warmth as well as retreat from the sun.
Load up the kayak with fish gear and tent sacks
and float down the river to a secluded beach
out of reach of the world and its worries and woe
Dig your toe in the sand
take the quiet at hand
Build a fire with the wire of steel wool and sparks
Leave no marks
but stay
for another day
Let the current lead the way
but drop anchor where you may
It’s all up to you to do what is true and stop feeling blue
Everything is always new
Enjoy the summer fun
Leap and frolic in the sun
Let out a joyful skirl with a whirl and a twirl
For the thrill of the fill of the will will not last
Summer slips away fast
Days get colder
nights get bolder
we get older
as we shoulder our dark thoughts and feelings
leaving us realing
to survive another beating from the mother who is fleeting
leaving us under the snow
