Summer Mornings

Some mornings the sun caresses my neck
And others, it burns my skin
The leaves change brown and frail
The flowers never seem to mind the sun,
Their petals glowing colours of the rainbow 
The bustle outside of cars racing around
The city doesn’t sleep,
Though it has its moments 
I like to think I’m soaring in the sky
Like a butterfly,
Quiet, yet magnificent 
Fluttering away into the horizon
Where I call home
I dread the seasons that are dreary 
The cold that freezes all
I thrive in the sun and the heat 
Waiting for the days where I’m free among the skies

We sure need those warm days. I crave the sun on my skin, the vitamin D, replenishment of warmth and carefree days! Fly Sarah bird!
