Summer : My true love :)

Summer.


What is summer?


The dictionary says that summer is -
1.)The season between Spring and Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere
2.)The period comprising of the months June, July, and August
3.)A period of hot, usually sunny weather
4.)The hotter half of the year


To me, summer is taken in. It can't be defined, or described. It is simply absorbed by the senses.


Summer looks like the hot sun, beating down on the surface of a pool. Like an afternoon at the park eating ice-cream with your crush, like the colors of a beach ball.


Summer sounds like people laughing as they splash in a pool. Like a silenced alarm clock, like 1960s jazz.


Summer smells like chlorine and sunscreen. Like new plastic from the beach balls and pool toys, like freshly mowed grass.


Summer feels like cool water running through your fingers, and being burnt at the same time. Like ice cream sticking to your fingers, like holding hands with 'that person' :)


Summer tastes like fresh movie popcorn. Like cold crisp watermelon on a hot day on the beach, like a hot dog at a baseball game.


Whatever summer is: whether it's just "the hot time of the year" or everything that is wonderful, I can't wait to live it up :D
