Summertime!

Summertime!

Summer brings not only long
but oppressive working hours
and also iced drinks
and frozen delights.

It brings to mind beaches,
gamboling in the sand,
flirting with the sun.

It connotes a retreat
to the cool mountains,
communing with Nature.

It means a respite
from school and office,
however, ephemeral it may be.

It means running away
from it all, an escape,
if only for a moment.

Summer is beaches and lakes,
and mountains and waterfalls,
and hills and birds,
and flowers and trees...

It's the time to be
more intimate with Nature!
