Summertime Rolls
Dear Unsealers,
It’s the 20th of June.
In the Northern Hemisphere, today is the longest day of the year. And in the Southern Hemisphere, it’s the shortest day.
Though the exact moment where the earth’s rays are closest to the sun isn’t scheduled until 10:42PM tonight, it feels right to still welcome in the new season.
Ninety-four days are ahead under sunshine, blue skies and warm weather. Here’s to sea breezes, golden hour sunsets and moments spent in good company. The days will go by just as fast as they’ve arrived.
This is my welcome to the new season ahead…
When day turns to night
The sun’s rays are closest to earthA new season is upon us
The solstice, ushering in the summerThe longest day this year is here
First one, of ninety four to comeIt’s a blank slate so far
With space, wide open for infinite possibilityA time of year where the world slows down
After a hibernating winter and blossoming springSoaking up the warmth, the days will go by fast
Looking ahead to Iberia in the fallSubscribe  or  log in to reply
