Can you
believe that it is almost the end of July? What happened to the future plans of
summer? I started to ponder this the other day as I daydreamed; looking upon
clouds in the middle of Cheesman Park. Reclining
on a blanket with my face looking upon the clouds. The clouds and I shared a
lazy agenda, to waste an afternoon. Their plan was to slowly creep across the
huge blue sky. My plan was to watch their paced path.
It is funny
how, upon the first breath of Spring, the plans for “everything you want to do
this summer” become laid. The long path of warm weather. A chance to enjoy. The
scheme of being able to look back in September and recite to the class, “How I
Spent my Summer.”
Here we sit
at the end of July. How has your plans come along so far? This is fair warning
to the end of fair warming. So, maybe the roadtrip to Mount Rushmore isn’t going
to materialize for this summer. But, a road trip somewhere will. Get out there!
There isn’t much time.
There isn't time, there isn't time
To do the things I want to do,
With all the mountain-tops to climb,
And all the woods to wander through,
And all the seas to sail upon,
And everywhere there is to go,
And all the people, everyone
Who lives upon the earth , to know.
To know a few, and do a few,
And then sit down and make a rhyme
About the rest I want to do.
To do the things I want to do,
With all the mountain-tops to climb,
And all the woods to wander through,
And all the seas to sail upon,
And everywhere there is to go,
And all the people, everyone
Who lives upon the earth , to know.
To know a few, and do a few,
And then sit down and make a rhyme
About the rest I want to do.
