Longing For Summer

in our neck of the woods
winter this year
hasn't been too bad

not much snow or ice
and milder temperatures than normal

but still

enough grey skies
chilly winds
and brown fields
to make me ready for all things Summer

the scent of fresh-cut grass

starch blue skies
over lush fields
spacer
via


garden parties
spacer
via
sleeping in
under cotton sheets

tucking away our school books
for a whole three months

lazing by the local lake
watching my children and their friends
craft castles in the sand

skins slippery with sunscreen
squinting under a hot sun
spacer

decking out the duff house
in stars and stripes
spacer

goin' fishin'
with fingers crossed
spacer

hoping for that telltale tug on the line
spacer

watching a whole lotta baseball
spacer

hitting the local tag sales
searching for treasures
spacer

the smell of clean towels
dried by the summer sun
spacer
via

yes indeed

i'm longing
