I gave in today. Stuck my head out of the shadows, just long enough to brave, for the first time, what this June had in store. The sheer terror of it all! Frigid coldness, unforgiving sunlight, muddy rain, frosty wind, distracted, disgraced, disenchanted autumn leaves?
But instead, dew. Gentle, mellow, quiet dew. Dew on my cheeks and warmth within. Hesitantly affirming dew, distilling my courage, quenching my questions, inundating me with unsettling serenity.
I'll admit, it'll take me a while to slink back into the shadows and attempt to forget I ever knew that this foray was noticed, silently observed.
