Mental Seasoning

Watermelon seed spitting, popsicle licking and locust humming songs; Summer scenes etched in dark crevices. Leave pile diving, pumpkin’s smiling, crackling fires with s’mores; Falling breathlessly, covering mistakes and guilt. Tongues catching snowflakes, sledding down slopes, hot chocolate parties; Frozen heart kiss to melt fears and fallacies. Tulips, May Day baskets, Barefoot puddle dances; Spring cleaning cobwebs, dusting off today.

Thanks so much Donna. We all go through our life's seasons and sometimes just need to clean house and mind. I'll be reading your work. Happy writing!
