Be Warned
as shadows grow long
there is no Lifeguard on duty.
Now it is time to
head away from the shore.
Summer is no more.
What message would you write about the end of this Summer? What flotsam and jetsam will you leave behind for beach combers to find? What lovely memories of friends and family, sights seen or heroic events will you take with you to look at on cold winter nights? Write a post card to yourself right now before you forget.
Yes, and it adds to the bittersweet of the season. Fall at the beach can be beautiful too.
the water becomes a deeper blue as it waits for the storms that changes everything…as if holding it’s breath. Yes fall at the beach is beautiful
my postcard: “it’s been a grand summer, filled with wanderlust and the beauty of growth and blooming. Let’s do it again, shall we?”
Beautiful, Joss! Like third graders might say “can we have a do over”? It was a grand summer I didn’t go any where. Thanks for the post card
Life just get better and better.
Yeah!

Loving this postcard. What a beautiful poem. Thank you as well, for the writing prompt… Here I go. Good bye summer.
So happy to send the post card. It is wonderful to know you got it! Will there be a post card from you, Brandy? I hope I hope
Yes! My post For October 17th
sorry struggled to find away to connect you to it and send it your say. I will learn how for your next fascinating writers inspiration. Thank you Carol!
I found your beautiful poem. You can just cut and paste the address from the finder to my comments. I hope that makes any sense. I’m sure you’ll figure it out. Can’t wait to see what you write next.
