the first of my thoughts: a writing exercise...

i have five minutes to post this and successfully illustrate what goes on in my writer's mind.

to the summer heat
that's fading between hours of day and dusk
i say: "i'll miss you"
especially in those lazy afternoons
when there is no blanket to warm my resting place.

to the cool breeze
that is visiting more frequently
but not frequently enough,
i say:
"Stay a while a friend,
i need you around more than you think."

to the promises i made
before i knew what could stop me from keeping them
i say:
"I'm sorry. I wasn't as faithful as I should have been."

and to the adventures i found,
the spontaneous and trivial victories,
that made this season memorable
i say:
"It was nice to meet you. Thanks for all the pictures,
even if not all of them were able to be taken."

to the dwindling season of summer lovin'
i say:
"so long and thanks...it was nice knowing you."

end.
