the sounds of summer

now that it's in its last gasp, here are some sounds that remind me of summer:

the whir and click of cicadas
the scrape of skateboard against asphalt
the rustle of leaves high in trees

today i sat in the sun amidst the tickly leaves of grass, listening to the beatles, and it was lovely.

Dear Prudence won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play?

Dear Prudence open up your eyes
Dear Prudence see the sunny skies
The wind is low the birds will sing
That you are part of everything
Dear Prudence won't you open up your eyes?

Look around round
Look around round round
Look around

Dear Prudence let me see you smile
Dear Prudence like a little child
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again
Dear Prudence won't you let me see you smile?

Dear Prudence won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play?
