SUMMERTIME

laurabreiling:

summertime

I float in a swimming pool.

I feel relaxed and cool.

A breeze fills the air.

No one else swims near.

Two leaves drift beside me.

I turn my head to see.

Two whales grin back at me.

I’m in the big blue sea.

I jump into the pool.

I feel like a fool.

My mind played tricks on me.

I’m an author, you see.

UNPREDICTABLE

summertime

I can imagine floating in a pool.

Sunshine beating down.

Surrounded by blue water.

Two leaves floating beside me.

Or are those leaves?

They turn into two whales.

And I’m not in a pool.

But far out in the ocean.

Being chased by whales.

The mind of an author.

Strange and unpredictable.
