\&quot;I\&#039;m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can\&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don\&#039;t deserve me at my best.\&quot;<br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe<br /> <br /> Imagination is more important than knowledge...<br /> Albert Einstein

It's summer, right now. The once dead and barren land is happy and full of life. Rabbits run in and out of my backyard. Birds fly blindly into trees.

On a good day, the trees raise their branches; thanking the sun for giving them sunshine. But then, the clouds part letting down heavy tears. Thunder cracks the sky in rage, and frightens the landscape.

The sun has hidden behind the clouds. The tree branches lower in disappointment. The rabbits and birds flee in panic to their natural territories. Hello, Summer. How are you?

At my writing camp, we had to write about a landscape that we know well. This was my backyard.
