I Know.....It

   It, could be anything.
   The IT I refer to in the above title, is Summer is over.
   Last night, I had the back door open, and the hubs said, " the air keeps going on, why do you have the backdoor open?" I deeply sighed, " Summer is over, you know." Dr. Baron reminded me, " Bonnie it is 94 outside." Really.........screaming ever so slightly, " Don't you smell it, can you not hear it, do you see what is happening?" me continuing in my sweet lady like way..." Summer is leaving, its over!!"
  About two days, ago, I felt it. My feet hit the floor, and I shook my head, I knew what was going on. I walked downstairs, and opened the front door, the smell is different, the sound is altered. There is a hush, around me. Mother Nature gently nudges me, because she knows I have to tread lightly into change. I think she is telling me, that we have a few more warm days ahead of us, but the key word is few. Even the word holds no weight!! FEW??? what does that mean? A few more minutes, a child asks to stay awake. A few more bites of cake, says the birthday girl. A few more days of summer, my heart sinks. But I have a few more days, so you better well believe, I will be hoarding the heat.
   Seasons, are lost on me, I would prefer summer days and nights.
   I like color, and new growth, cacophony of birds, no shoes and tomatoes!
   But change is good for you, someone who was frozen must have thought!! Misery looks for change, not me! I have a heart that is very content with sunshine, so I hold on. By a thread, I grasp for the light of summer, knowing she will leave me.
   I should be thanking her for this long, hot summer. I will, and do, salute each day sucking up the smell of fresh cut grass like a crack head. Holding the last of summer tomatoes in my hands, touching, smelling, tasting, loving all that juice of summer. Shared with friends and family, meals, music, and magic.
    I Know It......another August on the run......you have been delightful...come back soon......an almost Haiku.
    Almost is much like few, I know it.....summer joy in the simplistic words and ideas!! or mistakes!
