Summer Day

Open my eyes
the sky is churning
Purples and blues
a kaleidescope with clouds

Open my eyes
this material mesh is starting to rub
Summer’s heat is sinking in delicate skin
as leaves sway lazily,
dazzled by the incoming breeze

Colors morph and brighten, then fade
More clouds roll in
rumbling echoes along mountain sides,
drearily drumming in my ears

I open my eyes
and lift my head
There’s a storm coming
Time to go in

A deep breath
And then an exhale
A warm rush brings life

I love the last stanza!!

    It’s ok. It’s just a pain. I keep getting sick this year
    I’m hoping this is the last of it

    I’m grateful you don’t get sick often. That’s awesome. Yeah COVID is a nightmare. I’m glad you’re ok and healed well. I had that this year, too. I had it all this year ugh 😅😫
