Challenge #2

Tunnel of Love
Journaling: The romance of summer! What do you love? Write about anything you feel sentimental about or that gets your heart pumping.
Creative: Write a love poem to anyone or anything you like

Oh man neither one of these challenges was made for me. Summer is not my favourite season, that would be Autumn, I know very basic white woman of me. Plus, I grew up on a farm, so summer always meant work. I guess I do like how fast and easy it is to get dressed in the mornings, just throw on shorts and a t-shirt and you're good. I also love all the summer fruit we get this time of year, strawberries, raspberries, cherries, etc, yummy!

I'm not a person who really writes poetry anymore (I dabbled a little bit when I was teenager). I got nothing against it, I enjoy other people's poetry, it just not something I enjoy doing myself.

As recompense for my lack of creativity please accept his famous poem about Sherlock Holmes:

Hand on heart, I can't say it's my favourite season either (I don't like heatwaves), but the fruit is always good!

[kingstoken]

Heatwaves are the worst, but fruit is the best.

I used to like summers when I was a kid, but now that I'm older and I can't tolerate the heat, I prefer the fall (which can be very summer-like here in the South).

This is a tough challenge for me too. I've done a bit of poetry over the years, but I have to be in a very certain type of mood, and that happens rarely. I'm trying to get inspired to step outside my comfort zone and do one for this challenge, though.

[kingstoken]

I completely understand about the heat.

Good luck with the poem.

[scripsi]

I prefer Autumn too.

[kingstoken]

It's the best!

I can't believe such a huge Sherlock superfan like me hasn't heard that poem before?! (or maybe it was so long ago I don't recall) Great vid and perfect imagery for the words.

[kingstoken]

I'm so glad I could introduce you to it!
