Fading


The hot summer sun, that has
bronzed our skin and stolen the
color from bright beach towels, sets
earlier in the late August sky.

Grilled meats and crispy, cobbed corn
carry summer's savory goodness to our
tables. And we dine outside just
as long as the temperature allows.

The still green paths and the
late summer blooms call to us,
promising more days of outdoor fun
and leading us gently into autumn.





Joining Melissa and my
Six Word friends who
are talking about FUN!

    Late summer is a glorious time! I'm hoping for a little more cobbled corn before the season gives out, myself. :)

    Um. Cobbed corn, actually. (Autocorrect!)

    I'm in denial that summer is coming to a close. I swear April was yesterday!
