HELLO RAIN. 

You've been falling for days now and while most find your presence dull, I delight in it. Every drop. Delight. 

Yesterday you stained my suede shoes and today you clung to my stockings and made my skin cold. 

I do not carry an umbrella, for of them I am fearful. I let you cover me. 

I walk slowly under open sky and I catch you on my face. There you linger until thoughts of you warm my cheeks from the inside out. So much so that you disappear, back into sky's eyes. 

You are so many and so much all at once. Over and over again you fall. Eternal water for which earth calls. 

Where do you reside when the world is dry? Who decides when you descend? Where do you hide, if not in blue sky? I cannot comprehend. 

HELLO VIEW.

HELLO SKY.

I have been watching you. Observing. Noticing. 

Twice this week you have been sleeping still when I have crawled from the warmth of blankets. Though I suppose my mind was still sleeping with you. Peaceful. 

We wake together, eyes opening slow to let the sun into our souls. Our spirits. Absorb. 

Three times you have kept star eyes open for me. Star eyes that whisper dreams until I am sleeping.

Four times you have let light be bright between breezes and warmed these winter days. 

A thousand times will I be thankful. A thousand times high. 

HELLO VIEW. 

note to self

Count to ten when your eyes become the sea and breathe baby, breathe.

HELLO SUMMER.

I can feel that you are fading and though I have been longing for Winter I am afraid for you to go. You will be back and with your return will come warmth once again but until then what am I to do? Am I to love Winter? To speak of my love for her? Or am I to be cold to her? To blow back upon her the icy winds with which she covers me?
Tell me Summer, tell me what to do. Fold into my soul your flowers for I fear my heart will fail, fickle without a touch of Summer inside.
Follow me. Help me not to forget.

HELLO VIEW.
