I wanted to share mine this week…
This Story of Summer
Chapter by chapter, lean in storyteller
for summer is beginning. There is something
you have been waiting for. Praying under
night skies, looking across the constellations
for answers. The ink on the page, it pens
the story, the one that you have been dreaming of.
Just a reminder that there’s no right way to do this. If you write one, please share it with me (subscribers can comment on this post!), share it on our paid subscriber chat, or post it on Instagram. My handle is @K8belew.
I love your poem so much, Kate. Mmmm. I see blue fireflies.
