In Summer



As finals approach, I can think of no better time to think about two beautifully complimentary themes—eternity and Summer. I’ll be working hard, but Summer will be a breath of freedom. Trees and sky will be part of life again. Better yet, the azure ozone and eager grass will be reminiscent of something bigger—colors on a giant canvas, vivid moments in a cosmic movie. Years are frames in a work of art, telling moments in the Editor’s cut—and in summer, somehow, it’s easier to see it. When this short film ends, the credits will roll…

Christ…
Christ…
Christ…

and the larger part of life will start.

In Summer

In summer I’ll play in paint—
Soaked in blue
Stained with green
Spattered with brown—
Hike this watercolor sketch
On eternity’s easel
This bright-hued canvas
This commemorative portrait
Of how it all begins
