That Was Summer

That Was Summer

 

Have you ever felt summer?

Sure you have.

Remember that time,

When you got out of the cold refreshing pool?

Remember the weather being so hot that you could already feel yourself getting dry before even using your towel?

That was summer.

 

Have you ever heard summer?

Sure you have.

Remember that time,

When you walked back into your room after a fun time outside, the air inside being so boiling hot that you could almost see it? Remember opening the window for some fresh air, the chatting of the cicadas filling your ears? 

That was summer.

 

Have you ever seen summer?

Sure you have.

Remember that time, 

When you were taking a walk, and as you passed a house you saw gorgeous flower bushes? Remember all the honey bees collecting nectar and pollen, buzzing and jumping from one flower to the other? 

That was summer.

 

Have you ever smelt summer?

Sure you have.

Remember that time, 

When you woke in the morning, finally not drenched in sweat because of the rain last night?

Remember opening the window so that the condensation on your windows would go away, the smell of petrichor filling your lungs?

That was summer.

Task Description: For writing during week 1 & 2, Team Tui wrote about either summer or Christmas  and put it in sort of the same format as ‘That was summer’ by Marci Ridlon. Above is my writing for this task!
