Covnersation 16: My Summer Story 2015



“The first week of August hangs at the very top of summer, the top of the live-long year, like the highest seat of a Ferris wheel when it pauses in its turning. The weeks that come before are only a climb from balmy spring, and those that follow a drop to the chill of autumn, but the first week of August is motionless, and hot. It is curiously silent, too, with blank white dawns and glaring noons, and sunsets smeared with too much color.”
― Natalie Babbitt



 





   Summer to me is this one scene that continues to play over and over as the word is let out into the air like a single sigh of content. It forever flickers in single frames of one moment in my mind.



The sun is starting to set and an intense glow rains in through the window leaving you in a content squint or simply your eyes are completely closed basking in the rays as if you can absorb it to feed your mood.



    In the passenger seat with your barefeet on dashboard, the windows are down, it's hot yet you can't seem to turn on the air. The warm wind licks at your face as though it's casting faint yet still amazing memories.

The wind holds every feeling you had of freedom, love, courage, fun, and maybe even tears.


Your hair is whipping like crazy at your face and you have the biggest smile you've had all summer on your face despite it being the end.


The car radio isn't blasting but accompanies the wind and warm sun in your reminscing. The song is the song that's just a mere coincidence as the lyrics write the story you've lived through for the past 3 months.

   That one song sends you in a tailspin and will forever be the song to describe that year, it holds every smile, tear, laugh, and sigh of content. That song makes your summer a music video as each amazing and crippling moment chooses to go fast or slow in dependence on that song.

 So with taking everthing in, the warmth, the glow, the song, you're not afraid to say so long sweet summer.

   I've compiled a list of songs that represent not only my summer but the summer of anyone I could've gotten in contact with and had the pensive look then slight smile on their face as they automatically knew.


P.s. It's a bit long but some of them might become an anthem for a particular memory you'd never thought to cherish with just any lyrics.

― L.M. Montgomery
