Pavement-cracks flower-grinned beneath a blue sky, their shadows lightly dancing. Birdsong was maypole ribbons. Even the tree canopies did giggle. Dogs greeted in their wagging frenzy. Cats dozed in sunlit pools. Traffic kept its beach-wave percussion. Schools emptied. Playgrounds filled. Garden parties began, barbecues alight, aromas wafting. Come one, come all. Summer in the city had arrived.

With the first day of summer comes a lengthening my usual stride, as if somehow I am solar powered and my joy battery is recharging.

The first day of summer comes as a brilliant smile radiated from the heavens, one my soul returns on reflex.

On this first day of summer there is a sweetness to the laughter of the children, one that has been rising upon the spring tide, yet now comes to full vibrancy in these brilliant rays.

Upon this first day of summer I feel as if I opened a book, yet instead of words to greet my eyes, the pages rendered a soft and warming light.
