Summer sun minutes are counted Nature clears space for autumn Man recognizes the colors From green to barn red and gold - fresh impressions and experience Everything will soon be repainted I hear you shout my name ... the eardrum is temporarily closed - not quite ready for fall yet 17/08/2021 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Hi Sunshine Smile, my dear friend, Contrary to Europe and America and many other countries, South Africa, as its line of latitude gives away, is entering Summer and August for us is a month of gusty winds and erratic weather, one day hot, the other cold. Had a cold Winter which for us here is unheard of -7 degrees C. Summer is when plants peep out and blossoms surround us, my ears open to the popping of an oncoming Spring, you wrote a great poem Sunshine Smile. Hugs and blessings Jennifer.

- Summer is short in Norway, dear Jenny ... 20 c + is rare ... a lot of rain and a lot of wind - August can offer autumn ... (even if it is a little early) - This spring and summer went way too fast because of mine hospital stay ... and too much pain - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Lovely way of putting it... "the eardrum is temporarily closed"... Time, her steps appear to be slow when we face new experiences and fast when we face familiar ones... such is the magic of the flow of time..Enjoyed reading dear Anne... Hugs.. ~ Ani

So lovely - so many creatively unique lines Anne-Lise. I'm in the same boat as you - not ready to let go of summer's hand yet I know she will soon slip away into autumn. Thi s write has a pensive air about it. Well done!

August will be over before we know it and I for one will miss the summer heat. But I will enjoy the fall colours. : ) Nicely done my friend.

Lovely ode to August in its wonderful bright colors you evoked, Anne-Lise. You are right--fall has to wait a while.
