Summer Nights
Summer nights
never really get dark
There is always some glimmer of light
almost as if the sky is looking after the night owls who are out past curfew
The night never really gets silent,
the background noise acts as a muffle to the 2 AM conversations, or the 12th rerun of the late night comedy show
Storms surge
with the same energy of those who live for the summer air
Lightening illuminates the sky, giving a quick glimpse into the night.
The sun rises
stretching across the dim sky, filling it with light.
It creeps into the windows and gives a warm welcome to a new day to those still fast asleep.
While some groan at the beginning of a new day, others jump out of bed at the first hints of the suns rays.
We live for the time of year when the days are longer, nights are warmer, the sun seems to shine brighter, and the air smells of sunscreen and freedom.
