Dear Summer,

Where did you go?

It seems as if you just arrived, but now you're running away.

With everything I had to do these months, I didn't have time to fully enjoy you.

I didn't get to lay on a beach in the warm sun and ear the ocean waves. I didn't get to sit under a tree on a nice blanket and enjoy a Popsicle. I didn't get to go to a water park or ride a roller coaster. I didn't get to hop in the car and drive to where ever I wanted to. Heck, I didn't get to work to make money!

Although I am very grateful for all I did do, I still wish you were longer. School is only two weeks away and that's enough to want you to come back! But I know you have to leave so I will patiently wait for your return and I promise to fully revel in your splendor next year.

Although....I am excited about football season. It's a double edged sword really.

Your favorite ginger,

Molly
