 Five Senses of Summer

Sounds like bullfrogs and katydids...

Underwater fantasy is my point of view!

Meandering along with the feel of fresh cut grass under bare feet...

Mmmm cold sweet tea tastes wonderful!

Each summer rain brings that clean earth smell
Radiating goodness,health and work, 
summer is the best time of year!

GUEST POST! Five Senses of Summertime by Jill Koehn

🌳Five Senses of Summertime🌳

🛶Summer sounds like a ripple of water my paddle board paddle makes as it dips into still water.  

💦When I see summer I see sparkling drops of water the boys & I splash up in pools & lakes.

🥜🥤A VERY BAD Haiku about how Summer tastes:

Peanut Butter, Milk
Cold Ice Cream in the Ninja
Add Malt BLEND ROARRR 
Sluuurrrp

🌾Summer feels like the hard earth & like the scratchy grasses I sit among while I watch the train go by in the valley. 

🍊What does Summer smell of? Fragrant blooms of my Tangelo tree
What is Summer? 
So sweet and so fleeting ... somehow it holds by far the best of every passing year.

The Five Senses of Summer




Summer looks like melted ice cream and sprinkles making sticky rivers down a waffle cone...

It smells like freshly cut grass clippings baking in the sultry sun....

Summer sounds like airplanes whining and beach waves crashing...




It tastes like the ice cold heart of a ripe red watermelon...

Summer feels like forever,
 but slips away like a popsicle melting on a July day...
