JUNE PROMPT I SCRITTURA

The Blueberry Summer

The summer magic takes over the sky

The blueberry summer yawns under a thin veil of burnt grass. Sunlight lingers like a drunken sailor at the bar. Sun chases the clouds away.

The pastel days ride on a blue-hued VW bus. Jasmine dances in a trance. Peachy sunset colors splash on my heart canvas.

As the dusk deepens I dip my dreams in a moonlight batter. A swarm of fireflies entices me to follow them to a long sleepover in the Milky Way over at Borrego Springs.

I need to embrace the magic of the present!
