I love warm weather,

I love nights,

I love 60 degree nights,

I embrace the peaceful stillness 

of warmth and silence,

I breathe the seemingly clear air 

after a long, hard day,

I feel the cool nothingness 

that the atmosphere holds,

I watch the colors of the sky fade

from orange 

to yellow

to cream

to celeste 

to the deep blue hues

that belong to the ocean,

It seems unreal how the sky 

can be painted in new shades every day,

But the feeling that these nights brings

is always the same,

A feeling that it will be ok,

That tomorrow will be better than today,

That even though life seems to go on the way it does,

We don’t have to see it that way,

It can be full of beginnings and ends,

It can be full of starting and finish lines,

It can be full of goals and accomplishments,

60 degree nights,

That’s what they are to me
