10.10.2021 – summer came and went

summer came and went
quickly, summer for people
who are not children

Adapted from the line:

“The summer came and went quickly which is the nature of summer for people who are not children, those lucky ones to whom clocks are of no consequence but who drift along on the true emotional content of time.”

from The Summer he Didn’t Die – A Brown Dog Novella, by Jim Harrison
