Summer Approaches
There are just two weeks of school.
Maybe less.
Summer Approaches
I shall write more and spend days
with my children.
We shall walk the nature trail and spin
tales of the Magic Wood.
Summer Approaches
Daylight grows long and the night
warmer.
Still I wear the long sleeved shirt
with a hood.
Summer Approaches
With a list of books
I shall read late into the night – inspired.
My children shall swim, play, and work.
Summer Approaches
A soothing balm from the harsh cold
realities of winter and
lonely failure.
An election.
Summer Approaches
A new season without my beloved
grandma.
Gone in January 17, 2015.
Summer Approaches
The cold stifles, giving way
to yellow sun and new
moons.
Summer Approaches
She so loved the flowers.
