I fell asleep to warm summer breeze going through my curtains wrapping around my legs.. my arms...flowing through each strand of damp hair.It was caressing my skin like a lovers touch. Whispering like to me like a best friend. Flowing through my ears like a Lykke Li song. Tickling me like three certain friends I know.. I fell asleep to the words of Meg and Dia.. I mindlessly drifted off to their words.. I feel like I'm shadowed by hazy stars above me.....
In that nights dreams I saw myself lying down in a blissful meadow surrounded by light... I saw no clouds drifting east to west... I could hear the chirping birds gossiping about the latest hatching.. The grass behind my back was almost like a blanket that's been warmed up by a the closest of friends...I expected my hair to be a like birds nest but I found it to be like gushing waterfall. The grass was poking at my bare feet and that only made all of this more enticing.
This next encounter with nature was a bit more serene and wet..The blanket beneath me fell through my fingers in each attempt to wrap it around my legs and arms...There was only one thing stopping the sun from penetrating every inch of skin that was exposed from my blank tank top and my jean shorts... The dark gray clouds...They felt like a beautiful blessing that the heavens placed over my head totally unaware how beautifully dark they were or how grateful I was for their protection. The water licking the tips of my hair..The scent of salt lingering in the air and burning my eyes when I was completely emerged. My feet's floor being dragged along on my path by each moist step I took.The water splashing against my legs as I dared to step closer to the waters edge...I lived for these strange meetings with the water. Whenever I was near or directly in it I felt at home...No place could ever compare....
Everyone likes laying down in the midst of a pile of leaves that have lifelessly descended slowly from the large oak tree in the sea of all the pines and redwoods...Protected from the rain by the intertwined branches in the sky. The dirt surrounding me damp to the core. The scent of pine and cedar being thrusted into my nose with each breath I took... I felt like one with my surroundings. It turned out I had more than one home...
I braced myself with each step I took with the gushing wind slamming my face. I trotted down the filled white cherry slushied streets. I could feel little specks of glitter or white magic descending from the greedy clouds that claimed the sun for themselves.There was a white blanket covering every inch of the floor and sky. It was so cold that it was all I could smell. Bitter bitter cold air. The specks of shredded ice made a river flow down my cheek and arms...I was thankful for this. It woke me up when nothing could and made me see how beautiful life really is...
I woke up..I focused my eyes to look outside my window.. But I didn't have to look out my window to know what mood the sky was in today. I felt the blanket of warmth greedily taken from me for someone else use. I was left naked from the warm air it gave me last night. I wanted to feel betrayed..But this new day had its own unique beauty that I did not take for granted. I climbed down to close the window.Trying to stop the tiny forming along my arms.. my legs.. my body..Trying to thaw my bones..Trying to return the heat to my body. When I went to sleep I left my summer..A little part of me was devastated...Another piece was ecstatic. I was craving my fall... Every pore in my body was desperately craving this new day and the ones to come..... I loved my summer...my winter..but I missed my fall...When I was fully changed I welcomed the cool air blowing through each strand of hair with open arms for I had missed my home...It caressed my cheeks skin like a lover...like a best friend...
