Spring To Summer
Mornings begin hot and with the afternoon things become dry and crisp under hard light. The sky becomes paler and more colourful in the evenings. When the days stop being cold and wet you can notice the nights. As they try to make up for the sweltering heat of the day with chill air and wet ground.
As soon as the sun is up all moisture and dew is obliterated around this time of the year. Grey and white are gone, blue and orange are left. And when the days of orange and blue are over, grey and white will dampen the sky again. This process is ingrained in our very bodies as we try to adjust each year.
As the heavy hours draw in you can see the dark trees reaching down from the sky. The warmth leaves with the sun, the cold arrives with the moon. lamps are lit and fires are stoked. The only comfort to be found.
You can now see the moonlight through the old trees. Like a hard light being shone through an old mans's wrist. The veins tightly wound together.
