if summers there were made of glass, this is the way the light would shine through the summer. Sparklers reflecting in the water of the lake, lights sparkling off of the fishing pools we use. The orange of the popsicles, glimmering as it drops down the hands who hold them. Different shades of green, both bright and dull, reflecting the trees that stand tall. The clear color of the cool breeze that brush pass us as we sit near each other.
