I wanted to share mine this week…

This Time of Summer, This Time of Sun

Sun, which slips into the morning with

the sound of birds, radiance that doesn't

second guess itself. Listen, your body

like a sunflower turns toward that sound

of dawn. Another time draws close, another

world is growing under our feet.
