Good morning sunshine
Mist and calm in the meadows
A new day begins
Cicadas singing
A soft breeze through the green leaves
The sounds of summer
S’mores by the fire
The soft glow lights our faces
We’re summer people
Moonlight and warm air
The stars shine white in the dark
A nightly blanket

Love the words, love the pictures, love the emotion it evokes. 🙂

These are beautiful. I like how the first two are brighter & refreshing, while the second two capture a little more of the warmth of summer & those later evenings out to enjoy the weather. We’re still hoping for a little summer here in the UK but it’s been rather rubbish. I love summer! xx

Thank you! It’s been a milder summer here than I expected, which is honestly a relief, as last year it was almost intolerable. We’ve had a few very hot days this month, though. I confess I’m ready for fall, but there’s a certain magic to summer that I know I’ll miss when it’s gone.

I struggle with my poetry. I’m insecure and I think I suck.

I think that’s something a lot of writers feel. I certainly do – it’s hard to create something and then put it out into the world for others to read and judge. But it’s also magic (I say that a lot) to make something that didn’t exist before, that’s wholly and completely yours, and that won’t ever exist again. No one can write quite like you, or me, or any writer, and our unique voices are worth putting out there. I hope you keep writing, and I promise to keep reading. 🙂

In that case I’ll keep writing!
I don’t wow myself. And if I don’t wow myself I don’t think anyone else will. But it’s like when G&R wrote Sweet Child O’mine. They said it was a repulsive song. But it’s one of their biggest hits.
I’m sorry I’m such a downer. Excellent first impressions 😂

It’s hard. Writing is really personal, and so when someone doesn’t like what I’ve written (and it happens), it just makes me feel terrible. But I soldier on! Because for every person who doesn’t like my style or my stories, there’s someone who does. Coffee helps, too. 😉
