The Summer I Was Fourteen

February 27, 2019

The utmost euphoria made

by waking up without a

beep

beeP

beEP

bEEP

BEEP

impeding my deep slumber.

And the warm, freeing feeling

of the incubator sun

on my skin.


The sound of my friends’ voices

filling my head

and the fuzzy feeling

caused by seeing their faces.

The tickling sensation on my skin

from earth’s small

green fingers.


The chilling sensation

from the sweet

bubbly taste of soda.

The distant choir of birds

and the blanket of wind

wrapped around

My entire being.

This is summer.
