Good morning everyone.
It is a lovely morning,
here in my beautiful ugly.
The sun is out,
a gentle breeze,
an incredible blue sky.
August is,
a pretty month,
still Summer, still hot,
but without,
the blazing heatwaves,
of July.
August is a month for,
corn roasts,
a month of pic nics,
of sitting in a lawn chair,
of walking in grass.
Once mid August hits,
it becomes,
a month looking to,
Fall.
Fall I dream of,
Winter I dread.
This year,
perhaps even more so.
I look forward to,
the crisp air,
of Fall,
the winds,
the colours,
I look forward to the return,
of my EFM class,
of Supper club,
I look forward to,
new projects,
new challenges,
new adventures,
I look forward to,
wearing,
my fall wardrobe.
My plaid,
my caps,
my boots,
my jeans,
my jackets.
I will miss,
the simplicity,
of Summer dressing,
t-shirts,
shorts,
sandals,
and sunscreen.
Since , I started,
wearing shorts,
a few years ago,
and sandals only,
last year,
I have enjoyed Summer,
there is lots to be said,
for loving yourself enough,
to let your legs and feet,
come out to play.
In my life,
Summer,
has been a time,
of self consciousness,
of not loving myself,
of being critical of my body.
I’m better now,
but I still feel happier,
in Fall attire.
I feel more confident,
I feel more attractive.
Once the weather cools,
I feel smarter.
It’s easier to concentrate.
In the Fall,
I miss going to school,
and I am glad that EFM,
satisfies some of my,
curiosity and thirst for,
discussion,
for knowledge,
for buying notebooks,
and school supplies.
I am ready,
for cooler weather,
for long walks,
without the fear of sunstroke.
I am ready for Fall.
These are my Sunday morning musings.
Be well you all.
Later girls,
BB
