I ranted about winter... So now that summer's finally here, it makes sense that I should write something appreciative. Something beautiful, something poetic to sum up how I feel about this glorious thing. Trouble is... I'm just too excited. Or crazy. I don't know, but I think this at least started out nice. What can I say? I tried.
I felt a living presence in my room this morning. The warmth of the sun, the gentle breeze, the new joy in my body even when I’m opening my eyes to a sunrise on a Sunday morning. It’s too early to feel this alive, but that’s what Spring is. I felt Spring like a goddess who’s been in a deep sleep and finally decided to get out of bed. Or maybe she died, and left a little daughter behind who took this long to figure out what she was doing.
It’s been a long winter, guys.
I feel like I’ve forgotten what the sun feels like, and what it’s like to walk around without being wrapped in every item of clothing I own. I keep exclaiming “it’s so hot!” but not out of complaint, out of sheer wonder and disbelief. Like, how is heat even real? And anyone who follows “it’s so hot!” with any negativity is getting punched. I don’t understand you people. You say your favorite season is fall, but do you remember what comes after? Do you know how long it’s been since I’ve seen a goddamn daisy? Stop talking about fall in the middle of August when even September is technically still summer until, like, the twenty-whatever-eth.
I have such strong associations with summer and Crossworlds, and I think I understand why. Cassandra Senka, mother of the twins born on the summer solstice, proud member of Summer's Angels, has always dreamed of flight. And summer does know how to fly.
I have to stay where I am, or this summer will fly by me. If anyone knows how to slow down time, please tell me, or at this rate I'll be dead by tomorrow.
Well, I don't actually think I can drop dead when everything is so alive this time of year. Finally, it's June. June… Ellie and Savannah were born, both in their world and in this one. This month is my queen, both in her world and this one. This month is the Summer Celebration, and I’m going to celebrate all summer.
And when the last days of… No, I can’t think of it. This, right now, has to be all there is.

Siiiiggghhhhh... What was any of that? I guess this is what happens when you haven't seen the sun for six hundred years. I wouldn't recommend it. Check out some of my actual writing below, and happy Wednesday everyone!
