Summer's Song
"In summer, the song sings itself."
~William Carlos Williams~
The sounds of birds chirping, insects humming, leaves rustling, rain falling, children playing, dogs barking... We may be stuck inside during he winter months, but summer blurs the boundaries between inside and outside.
No matter where we live, summer is a special season. It's a time of richness, warmth, freedom, ease, and pleasure - a time when all of our senses are fully engaged.
I'm happy that it's summer. I want to drink in as much of it as I can.
My thoughts: This post sounds like someone's a little biased towards summer ;) Nah, but they do have a point. There are a lot of people that absolutely love summer. As much as we all complain about how hot it is, or how itchy our sunburns are, summer has more good than bad to it. There are beautiful birds singing, the sun is shining, flowers are in full bloom, the beach is a perfect destination, and things seem possible. All of us younger peeps love the summer because it means a chance to take a break and relax for a little while. Summer is a good season.
